Installing JupyterLab and JupyterLab extensions
Throughout this book, you can follow along using your favorite Python IDE (for example, PyCharm or Spyder) or text editor (for example, Visual Studio Code, Atom, or Sublime). There is another option based on the concept of notebooks that allows interactive learning through a web interface. More specifically, Jupyter Notebook or Jupyter Lab are the preferred methods for learning, experimenting, and following along with the recipes in this book. Interestingly, the name Jupyter is derived from the three programming languages: Julia, Python, and R. Alternatively, you can use Google's Colab, or Kaggle Notebooks. For more information, refer to the See also section from the Development environment setup recipe of this chapter. If you are not familiar with Jupyter Notebooks, you can get more information here: https://jupyter.org/.
