- General
- -------
- - :ref:`What is JupyterLab? <overview>`
- - :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/en/stable/>`__
- Development
- -----------
- - `How can you report a bug or provide
- feedback? <https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/issues>`__
- - `How can you
- contribute? <https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md>`__
- - :ref:`How can you extend or customize JupyterLab? <user_extensions>`
- - In the classic Notebook, `I could use custom Javascript outputed by a cell to programatically
- control the Notebook <https://stackoverflow.com/a/32769976/907060>`__. Can I do the same thing in JupyterLab?
- We intentially do not support this workflow. Instead, we reccomend you display a new mimetype and define a
- custom renderer for that in a JupyterLab extension. This makes sure the output is not tied directly to JupyterLab
- so that another frontend could still render it. Also, if the JupyterLab API changes then
- this change can be supported in your extension and the existing notebooks will still work without changing their
- outputs. If you have comments or suggestions on changes here, we have `an issue <https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/issues/4623>`__
- to discuss this decision.
- 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.
