JupyterLab
An extensible environment for interactive and reproducible computing, based on the Jupyter Notebook and Architecture. Currently ready for users.
JupyterLab is the next-generation user interface for Project Jupyter offering 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 interface. JupyterLab will eventually replace the classic Jupyter Notebook.
JupyterLab can be extended using npm packages that use our public APIs. To find JupyterLab extensions, search for the npm keyword jupyterlab-extension or the GitHub topic jupyterlab-extension. To learn more about extensions, see the user documentation.
The current JupyterLab releases are suitable for general usage, and the extension APIs will continue to evolve for JupyterLab extension developers.
Read the latest version's documentation on ReadTheDocs.
Getting started
Installation
install JupyterLab using conda, pip, or pipenv. Conda is recommended if you have no installation preference.
Project installation instructions from the git sources are available in the contributor documentation.
conda
Conda is an open source package management system and environment management system that runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux. Conda packages and distributes software for any language, and by default uses the Anaconda repository managed by Anaconda Inc. To install conda, please see the conda installation instructions.
Install the JupyterLab conda package with:
conda install -c conda-forge jupyterlab
pip
pip is a package management system for installing and updating Python packages, and comes with any Python installation. On Ubuntu, SUSE Enterprise Linux, openSUSE, and Fedora Linux, use the system package manager to install the python3-pip package. _The Hitchhiker's Guide to Python_provides guidance on how to install Python; Another option is to install Python directly from python.org. We suggest you upgrade pip before using it to install other programs.
JupyterLab requires Python 3.5 or higher.
- When using Windows with Python version 3.5 or higher, use the Python Launcher for Windows to use
pipwith Python version 3:py -3 -m pip install jupyterlab
- If the system has a
python3command (standard on Unix-like systems), install with the comand:python3 -m pip install jupyterlab
- Using the
pythoncommand directly is another option, but this will use the current version of Python (which may be Python version 2 or version 3 if both are installed):python -m pip install jupyterlab
Some systems have a pip3 command that has the same effect as python3 -m pip and/or a pip command that behaves the same as python -m pip.
Adding --user after pip install will install the files to a local user install directory (typically ~/.local/ or %APPDATA%\Python on Windows) instead of the system-wide directory. This can be helpful, especially if writing to the system-wide directory is not permitted. However, the user-level bin directory must be added to the PATH environment variable in order to launch jupyter lab.
pipenv
Pipenv provides users and developers of applications with an easy method to setup a working environment, however Python must be installed first. See the pipenv installation documentation to use Pipenv if it is not installed.
pipenv can be installed 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, activate the project's virtualenv. For example, in the directory where pipenv's Pipfile and Pipfile.lock live (i.e., where the above commands were run):
pipenv shell
jupyter lab
Installing with Previous Versions of Jupyter Notebook
When using a version of Jupyter Notebook earlier than 5.3, the following command must be run 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 the browser. See the documentation for additional details.
Prerequisites and Supported Browsers
Jupyter notebook version 4.3 or later is required. To check the notebook version, run the command:
jupyter notebook --version
The latest versions of the following browsers are currently known to work:
- Firefox
- Chrome
- Safari
See our documentation for additional details.
