An extensible computational environment for Jupyter.
JupyterLab is a very early developer preview, and is not suitable for general usage yet. Features and implementation are subject to change.
With JupyterLab, you can create a computational environment for Jupyter that meets your workflow needs. Here's a quick preview of JupyterLab (link to YouTube):
We have a roadmap of planned development.
Jupyter notebook version 4.2 or later. To check the notebook version:
jupyter notebook --version
The runtime versions which are currently known to work:
- Firefox 49+
- Chrome 39+
- Safari 10+
Earlier browser versions may also work, but come with no guarantees.
JupyterLab uses CSS Variables for styling, which is one reason for the
minimum versions listed above. IE 11+ or Edge 14 do not support
CSS Variables, and are not directly supported at this time.
A tool like postcss can be used to convert the CSS files in the
jupyterlab/build
directory manually if desired.
If you use conda
, you can install as:
conda install -c conda-forge jupyterlab
If you use pip
, you can install it as:
pip install jupyterlab
jupyter serverextension enable --py jupyterlab --sys-prefix
Start up JupyterLab:
jupyter lab
JupyterLab will open automatically in your browser. You may also access
JupyterLab by entering the notebook server's URL (http://localhost:8888
) in
the browser.
Instructions on how to install the project from the git sources are available in our contributor documentation.
Note: 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
.
The JupyterLab environment can be extended using extensions. See documentation for users and developers.
