I'm really loving jupyterlab. If there was autocomplete and a variable explorer like mententioned below, Spyder would be obsolete. Lab is still my go to. Thanks to whoever made this for us for free!
Variable exploration would be a lot more useful than auto completion. That's just the reason I do not use it for rapid prototying, but more for documentation and collaboration. It would change the game of python development if it had variable exploration.....
As Jupyter software grows, I'm thinking more and more to myself: "Looks like a simpler implementation of Emacs org-mode". You can do everything in org files you can do in Notebooks . Meaning: literate programming, mixing writing, math, media, code and output. The export and versioning features (it's a human-readable text file compared to .ipynb) are better. It's all embedded in the powerful Emacs/Spacemacs ecosystem, from better integration with the file system to advanced coding features in every conceivable language to org-mode's task management to you name it. Granted: org files are static. No Javascript-enabled interactivity or collaboration feature that I know of. But the only time you really need widgets in Jupyter is when you want to enable access for users who won't or can't use the code in the notebook. Then you can as well just build a stand-alone app, to be honest. Collaborative editing: not sure, but should be possible, too. I like when people use Jupyter, but I would very much like that more people would know of the power of literate programming that is possible in Emacs org-mode. My feeling is that it's this persisting, and wrong, image of Emacs as being so complicated, that sadly keeps org-mode from being discovered as an equally (or more?) powerful platform for data science.
200MB in browser? Once it loaded up ALL of that in browser? What will you do if you have a gig.... wait some more? When using native code you have the option to work in chunks and "peek" only at relevant parts of the file instead of loading it all up in ram chromefu-style. This is how notepad++ and even low-performace file viewers work. Your new generation browser based app cannot?
Hello, i am big fan of jupyter notebook. Please not remove permanently jupyter notebook in the future. In my case, jupyter lab is more slower than jupyter notebook (especially when changing tabs)
Totally agree Rugantio Costa. I only started using Jupyter Notebooks this year after long term apprehension. Now I use it for R too. Jupyter Labs looks fantastic. The clip above definitely motivates me to use it too
