The nteract application makes it easy to publish Jupyter notebooks online. Let's take a look:
- Download the application for free from nteract's website (https://nteract.io/desktop). Options for download are available for macOS, Windows, and Linux.
- After you download nteract's application file, open it and click on File → New. The menu options should match the kernels you have built or installed in JupyterLab, as shown in the following screenshot:
You can open an nteract notebook for any available kernels within JupyterLab.
- nteract comes preloaded with starter notebooks, which are great for testing its functionality. To start, navigate to Open Example Notebook and choose the notebook for the Python kernel named Pandas Table Schema Advancements, as shown in the following screenshot:
nteract's user interface and collection of commands are similar to JupyterLab's.
- To run the notebook, select Cell from the main menu bar and then Run All from the drop-down menu, as shown in the following screenshot:
The cell will output some content, including a pandas dataframe and visualization.
- To create a new notebook cell in nteract, place your mouse between two notebook cells. You will see an icon pop up that allows you to create a markdown or code cell, as shown in the following screenshot:
- Select the M↓ symbol on the left (highlighted in the preceding screenshot) to create a new markdown cell or the <> symbol to create a new code cell. Cells you add to your Jupyter notebook in nteract should also run in JupyterLab.
