Installation Instructions

Jupyter Setup

Necessary steps to install Python and Julia kernels

  • Install Jupyter with Python kernel:
      pip install jupyter --user

    Note: Make sure that Python scripts are added to PATH so you can then call jupyter from the terminal.

  • Download Julia: LINK (make sure Julia gets added to PATH so you can call it from the terminal)
  • Install Julia kernel: (in Julia REPL)
      ] add IJulia

Optional (but recommended) extensions

  • Download all Jupyter extensions:
      jupyter contrib nbextension install --user
  • Enable collapsible headings (this allows you to fold/unfold heading sections in large notebooks)
      jupyter nbextension enable collapsible_headings/main
    
  • Enable hidding input cells (we recommend manually setting shortcut under toggle cell input display to h)
      jupyter nbextension enable hide_input/main
      jupyter nbextension enable hide_input_all/main
    
  • Disable bracket auto-completion: LINK
