How to install Jupyter on my local machine?

Published on Aug. 22, 2023, 12:18 p.m.

To install Jupyter on your local machine, you can use a package manager like pip or conda. Here are the basic steps for installing Jupyter using pip:

  1. Open a terminal or command prompt.
  2. Install Python if it is not already installed on your machine.
  3. Use pip to install Jupyter: pip install jupyter
  4. Once the installation completes, you can start Jupyter by running the command jupyter notebook in the terminal/command prompt.
  5. This will open a new tab in your default browser and show the Jupyter interface.

If you prefer using conda, you can use the following command: conda install jupyter

Note that there are different ways to customize and configure your Jupyter installation, such as setting a password or changing the default port. You can consult the Jupyter documentation or search for tutorials and guides on specific configurations that you need.

To deploy Jupyter with Docker

To deploy Jupyter with Docker, you can follow these general steps:

  1. Install Docker on your local machine or a server.
  2. Pull the Jupyter Docker image from the DockerHub registry by running the command:
docker pull jupyter/base-notebook
  1. Launch a Jupyter container using the image by running the command:
docker run -p 8888:8888 jupyter/base-notebook

This command maps the container’s port 8888 to the host’s port 8888, which is the default Jupyter notebook port.
4. Access Jupyer by visiting http://localhost:8888 in your web browser. You can also use the IP address of the Docker host or the public IP address of a remote server if applicable.

Note that there are many other Docker images available for running Jupyter, each with different configurations and dependencies. For example, there are images specialized for data science, machine learning, or specific programming languages like Python or R. You can consult the DockerHub or search for tutorials and guides on using specific Jupyter images with Docker.
