Juno gives JupyterLab a window of its own on your desktop. It can launch and connect to a JupyterLab server for a directory on your machine, or it can connect to an already-running server, local or remote.
Juno is in early development, so the only way to get it is to clone this repository and build it yourself. To do this, you'll need Git and Node.js installed on your computer. From the command line,
# Clone this repository
$ git clone https://github.com/rschroll/juno
# Enter the newly-created directory
$ cd juno
# Install dependencies
$ npm installThis last step may take a few minutes as Node downloads and configures the dependencies Juno needs.
From the juno directory, run
$ npm startJuno will then ask for a directory to start a JupyterLab server in or the host and port of an already-running server. You can skip this step by passing this as an argument:
$ npm start ~/notebooks
$ npm start http://localhost:8888Juno is new and largely untested, so there are surely plenty of bugs and unimplemented features. Whenever you encounter one, please report it. Since Juno is only acting as a window to the JupyterLab server, it shouldn't be capable of causing any data loss.
A prior version of Juno worked with the standard Jupyter notebook server. It is still available in the legacy branch, although development has ended. JupyterLab provides many of the UI features the old branch attempted to implement, and does it better.
