This Visual Studio Code extension provides experimental features to extend the Jupyter notebook experience in VS Code.
This extension is intended to supplement the features provided by the main Jupyter extension. As this extension is providing experimental features, there is no set roadmap for how features will be added or removed from it. Features may be added or removed at any time and there is no guarantee of future support by virtue of inclusion in the extension now. Features in this extension that see high usage may be considered for removal from this extension and inclusion in the main Jupyter VS Code extension. In that case, best efforts will be made to notify of the change and migrate settings if possible.
If these tools aren't quite satisfying your need for something new and cool, also be sure to checkout these other standalone Jupyter Extension addons:
- Gather - Quickly extract tidy scripts or notebooks from your mess of experimentation.
- Pyodide Kernel - Yes, you can run Python in the browser without the need to install or configure any Jupyter server!

All features provided by the Jupyter PowerToys extension can be enabled or disabled via settings. Search for
Jupyter PowerToys from the VS Code settings UI and change the enabled setting to add or remove any of the

The notebook run groups feature provides the ability to group notebook cells into a sets of cells which can be
executed as a group together. The Jupyter > Notebook Run Groups > Group Count setting controls the number of these groups available, from one to three. Icons to add or remove cells from groups are added to the toolbar of each notebook cell. Cell groups can be executed via the command palette, optional icons in the cell toolbar, or from the dropdown on the cell run button.
Contextual help provides help text returned by the kernel when changing cursor position in a notebook.
The amount of help text can be controlled with the jupyter.contextualHelp.detailLevel setting.
List, start, stop, reset, kernels all from a new convenient Jupyter sidebar.
