A simple example

The lib/ directory of your new extension includes a very simple example of a working extension, written in JavaScript using CommonJS modules. Use this example as a guide to build your own extension.

Package name

We suggest that simple extension names start with jupyterlab_ and use underscores if needed to improve readability, such as jupyterlab_myextension.
