JupyterLite is a JupyterLab distribution that runs entirely in the browser built from the ground-up using JupyterLab components and extensions.

⚡ Status ⚡#

Although JupyterLite is currently being developed by core Jupyter developers, the project is still unofficial.

Not all the features available in JupyterLab and the Classic Notebook will work with JupyterLite, but many do!

Don’t hesitate to check out the documentation for more information and project updates.

✨ Try it in your browser ✨#

JupyterLite works with both the JupyterLab and Jupyter Notebook interfaces.

🏗️ Build your own JupyterLite 🏗️#

You can build your own JupyterLite website in a couple of minutes, with custom extensions and packages.

See the documentation for more details.

Browser-based Interactive Computing#

JupyterLite is all about accessible browser-based interactive computing:

  • Python kernels running in a Web Worker:

  • Support for interactive visualization libraries such as altair, bqplot, ipywidgets, matplotlib, and plotly

  • View hosted example Notebooks and other files, then edit, save, and download from the browser’s IndexDB (or localStorage)

  • Support for saving settings for JupyterLab/Lite core and federated extensions

  • Basic session and kernel management to have multiple kernels running at the same time

  • Support for Code Consoles

Ease of Deployment#

  • Served via well-cacheable, static HTTP(S), locally or on most static web hosts

  • Embeddable within larger applications

  • Requires no dedicated application server much less a container orchestrator

  • Fine-grained configurability of page settings, including reuse of federated JupyterLab extensions
