Today Project Jupyter announced that JupyterLab is Ready for Users.
The quickest way to try it out, if you have Docker, is to use the following docker-compose.yml
file:
version: '3'
services:
lab:
image: jupyter/base-notebook
volumes:
- ./notebooks/:/notebooks
ports:
- "8888:8888"
environment:
- JUPYTER_ENABLE_LAB=1
command: start-notebook.sh --NotebookApp.notebook_dir=/notebooks
Once you save the file, you can start it with docker-compose up
. In the terminal you will see the link you can follow to get to the UI. All the work you do in JupyterLab will be available in the ./notebooks
folder (relative to your docker-compose.yml
file).

If you want to know all the options available, be sure to check out the page for Jupyter docker-stack.
