What is Jupyter Notebook?

The Jupyter Project is a non-profit initiative that aims to develop and provide open-source software and open standards for interactive work.

2. Perform Debian 11 system update

Bef0re moving further, first perform the system update that will rebuild the APT package manager cache.

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

 

3. Install Python3 & PIP3

The latest version of Python is 3, available to install via the official repository of Debian 11.  Because we need a Python environment to install and use Jupyter Notebook. Therefore, first, install it.

sudo apt install python3

Also, we need a PIP package manager to install Jupyter Notebook, hence get that as well.

sudo apt install python3-pip

sudo pip3 install --upgrade pip

Upgrade PIP pn Debian 11

After that also install virtualenv package, a tool for creating isolated virtual python environments.

sudo pip3 install virtualenv

Install virtualenv

 

6. Create a Python virtual environment for Jupyter

Instead of installing Jupyter globally, let’s create an isolated Python environment for it.  Therefore, here we are creating our project directory called – demo you can name the folder whatever you want.

mkdir demo

Create a new Virtual environment inside the folder.

cd demo

Let’s give it a name- mynotebookenv, of course, you can assign a name whatever you want.

virtualenv mynotebookenv

Now, activate and load the created python environment for your current shell.

source mynotebookenv/bin/activate

You will see that your bash shell has been switched to your created environment.

 

5. Install Jupyter Notebook on Debian 11

jupyter notebook

Copy the URL that appears on your Terminal to access the Web Interface of Jupyter.

Open the browser and point it to http://127.0.0.1:8888
