JupyterLab

Build Status Documentation Status Google Group Join the Gitter Chat Binder

An extensible environment for interactive and reproducible computing, based on the Jupyter Notebook and Architecture. Currently in beta.

JupyterLab is the next-generation user interface for Project Jupyter. It offers all the familiar building blocks of the classic Jupyter Notebook (notebook, terminal, text editor, file browser, rich outputs, etc.) in a flexible and powerful user inteface. Eventually, JupyterLab will replace the classic Jupyter Notebook after JupyterLab reaches 1.0.

JupyterLab can be extended using extensions that are npm packages and use our public APIs. You can search for the GitHub topic jupyterlab-extension to find extensions. To learn more about extensions, see our user documentation.

The beta releases are suitable for general usage. For JupyterLab extension developers, the extension APIs will continue to evolve until the 1.0 release.

Read the latest version of our documentation on ReadTheDocs.

Getting started

Installation

You can install JupyterLab using conda, pip, or pipenv.

Instructions on how to install the project from the git sources are available in our contributor documentation.

conda

If you use conda, you can install as:

jupyter serverextension enable --py jupyterlab --sys-prefix

pip

If you use pip, you can install it as:

pip install jupyterlab

If installing using pip install --user, you must add the user-level bin directory to your PATH environment variable in order to launch jupyter lab.

pipenv

If you use pipenv, you can install it as:

pipenv install jupyterlab
pipenv shell

or from a git checkout:

pipenv install git+git://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab.git#egg=jupyterlab
pipenv shell

When using pipenv, in order to launch jupyter lab, you must activate the project's virtualenv. For example, in the directory where pipenv's Pipfile and Pipfile.lock live (i.e., where you ran the above commands):

pipenv shell
jupyter lab

Installing with Previous Versions of Jupyter Notebook

If you are using a version of Jupyter Notebook earlier than 5.3, then you must also run the following command after installation to enable the JupyterLab server extension:

jupyter serverextension enable --py jupyterlab --sys-prefix

Running

Start up JupyterLab using:

jupyter lab

JupyterLab will open automatically in your browser. See our documentation for additional details.

Prerequisites and Supported Browsers

Jupyter notebook version 4.3 or later. To check the notebook version:

jupyter notebook --version

The latest versions of the following browsers are currently known to work:

  • Firefox
  • Chrome
  • Safari

See our documentation for additional details.
