I describe how to change the default browser for Jupyter Lab on a Mac. If we don’t do anything and launch jupyter lab from the command line, the system’s default browser (Safari) will be invoked. If you want to change it to Chrome, follow the steps below.

Vagrant with Libvirt KVM

Sat, 15 May 2021 00:00:00 +0000

Vagrant creates and runs virtual machines, relying on virtualization providers such as Virtualbox, KVM, Docker, VMWare, and 30+ others. It will always default to launching the VM with Virtualbox unless we explicitly specify a different provider. In this guide I explain how I set up Vagrant with the Libvirt KVM provider on Linux.

JupyterLabs to PDF

Tue, 11 May 2021 00:00:00 +0000

In this post I describe how I managed, from a MacOS, to correctly convert Jupyter Lab exercises to PDF in different environments. Converting Jupyter Lab notebooks to PDF is not easy due to the multiple variants (images, links) they can contain. I’ve tried intermediate exports, pandoc, apps, without much success.

Python is a multi-paradigm interpreted programming language. pip manages packages from PyPI (the Python Package Index). PipEnv lets you create a virtual environment to run your application in isolation with the necessary libraries. Jupyter Lab is a web application that serves as a bridge between code and explanatory text.
