In this case I am using the octave_kernel do be the kernel to connect octave
and jupyter:
https://github.com/Calysto/octave_kernel
meanwhile I opened an issue to understand what are the details required to
have tables supported on octave_kernel.
https://github.com/Calysto/octave_kernel/issues/168
In order to understand how this works in other kernel I take, as an example,
one of the R kernels (IRkernel):
https://github.com/IRkernel/IRkernel
The project has spawned an R package repr that takes care of the display of
the different objects in the supported mime-formats:
https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/repr/repr.pdf
Technically one difference between the above octave and R kernels is that the
octave kernel is done in python (because it is easier to start) while the R
kernel is done in R.

And so I did. Tell me how I can help with this.
