Installing JupyterLab

I’ve decided to give JupyterLab a try. Follow the installation instructions on the Jupyter website. This will allow me to test the notebooks locally. If all works well, I’ll try to repeat it on Google Colab and UF JupyterHub.

Install conda

First I need to install conda.

shasum -a 256 ~/Downloads/Miniconda3-latest-MacOSX-x86_64.sh

An easier way to compare the hashes:

cd ~/Downloads
echo "8fa371ae97218c3c005cd5f04b1f40156d1506a9bd1d5c078f89d563fd416816  Miniconda3-latest-MacOSX-x86_64.pkg" | shasum -a 256 -c

Miniconda3-latest-MacOSX-x86_64.pkg: OK
  • Double-click on the installer and follow the prompts.
  • Restart iTerm2.
  • Test installation with conda list.

Success!

Install JupyterLab

  • Use conda to install jupyterlab.
conda install -c conda-forge jupyterlab
  • Restart iTerm2.
  • Launch JupyterLab with jupyter-lab.

Success!

  • Use Use Control-C to stop the JupyterLab server.
