- - :ref:`Is JupyterLab ready to use? <releases>`
- - :ref:`What will happen to the classic Jupyter Notebook? <releases>`
- - `Where is the official online documentation for
- JupyterLab? <https://jupyterlab.readthedocs.io>`__
- - :ref:`How can you report a bug or issue? <issue>`
- Development
- -----------

- - `How can you
- contribute? <https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/blob/3.4.x/CONTRIBUTING.md>`__
- - :ref:`How can you extend or customize JupyterLab? <user_extensions>`
- - In the classic Notebook, `I could use custom Javascript outputted by a cell to programmatically
- control the Notebook <https://stackoverflow.com/a/32769976/907060>`__. Can I do the same thing in JupyterLab?
- JupyterLab was built to support a wide variety of extensibility, including dynamic behavior based on notebook
- outputs. To access this extensibility, you should write a custom JupyterLab extension. If you would
- like trigger some behavior in response to the user executing some code in a notebook, you can output a custom
- mimetype (:ref:`rendermime`). We currently don't allow access to the JupyterLab
- API from the Javascript renderer, because this would tie the kernel and the notebook output to JupyterLab
- and make it hard for other frontends to support it.
- If you have comments or suggestions on changes here, please comment on `this issue <https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/issues/4623>`__.
- Tips and Tricks
- ---------------
- - How do I start JupyterLab with a clean workspace every time?
- Add ``'c.NotebookApp.default_url = '/lab?reset'`` to your ``jupyter_notebook_config.py``. See `How to create a jupyter_notebook_config.py <https://jupyter-notebook.readthedocs.io/en/stable/config.html>`__ for more information.
