Introduction to JupyterLab

Date: 8 October 2024

Using a single development environment for all stages of your research project can greatly facilitate your work organization. To do so, our team recommends JupyterLab, a software package that combines code, text, equations, graphics and visualizations in a single document. This tool can also execute program lines one at a time, allowing you to pinpoint their respective effects. This training course will allow you to make the most of JupyterLab’s graphical interface and key features.
