Getting Started

In the following set of pages, we will show you how to use nbinteract and its related tools. At the end of this tutorial, you will have a publicly viewable interactive webpage to share with the world!

Following Along

In this tutorial, we assume familiarity with running terminal commands and using Jupyter notebooks.

The simplest way to follow this tutorial is to use the Binder service to start a notebook server. On the next page, we'll guide you through the steps to configure Binder so that the necessary packages are available for use in notebooks.

Installing Locally

If you prefer to work on your local machine, you need to install the nbinteract package. To install the package, run the following commands in your terminal:

pip install nbinteract

# The next two commands can be skipped for notebook version 5.3 and above
jupyter nbextension enable --py --sys-prefix bqplot
jupyter nbextension enable --py --sys-prefix widgetsnbextension
