jupyterlab-classic
The next gen old-school Notebook UI.
Install
With pip
:
pip install jupyterlab-classic
With conda
:
conda install -c conda-forge jupyterlab-classic
Usage
jupyterlab-classic
can be started as a standalone app with:
python -m jupyterlab_classic
Existing federated JupyterLab extensions listed via:
jupyter labextension list
Should also be available when starting jupyterlab-classic
.
Motivation
JupyterLab is the next-gen UI for Project Jupyter. Approaching version 3.0, it is becoming more mature and provides and advanced computation environment, that can sometimes be compared to what traditional IDEs offer.
However in some cases, having a leaner, simpler, and more focused interface to work on a notebook is really useful.
The single document mode as currently implemented in JupyterLab helps address this issue, but still displays a couple of visual cues to the users that can be distracting.
The goal of the jupyterlab-classic
project is to look as close to the classic notebook UI as possible, while leveraging the efforts put in the development of JupyterLab itself and its extension system.
Technically speaking, jupyterlab-classic
reuses many of the existing plugins for JupyterLab (notebook, toolbar), and also supports pre-built (federated) third-party extensions using the new distribution system added in 3.0. That way, extensions built for JupyterLab should also be compatible with jupyterlab-classic
, as long as they can be added to the application.
Prior art
This project is mostly a reboot of the two previous attempts at making something similar:
These projects real expressed the need for a stripped down, minimal version of the Jupyter Notebook UI.
jupyterlab-classic
contributes to that space With the added:
- Support for existing federated (prebuilt) JupyterLab extensions
- Repo structure, similar to JupyterLab
- Reusing as much as possible from upstream JupyterLab
