Install Jupyter in WSL

First Make sure that Windows Subsystem for LInux is installed.

First thing is to make sure you have updates & python Installed

sudo apt update && upgrade
sudo apt install python3 python3-pip ipython3
sudo apt install jupyter-core

#Check your version
python3 --version

#Upgrade pip
python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip

You can run Jupyter Notebook in your WSL. Here WSL will act as a jupyter server accessible at localhost with port 8888. The steps to install Jupyter is as following-

1. Install Jupyter by typing the following command in your Bash Shell.

pip3 install jupyter

2. Create alias to launch jupyter without browser from the WSL:

• Open your bash configuration and add the following line

vi ~/.bashrc

• add the following line "~/.bashrc", saving the fil

#Add the following line after the case statement
alias jupyter-notebook="~/.local/bin/jupyter-notebook --no-browser"

• After that you have to source your file by updating your Bash profile by entering:

source ~/.bashrc

Now whenever you will type Jupyter Notebook in your bash you will be directed to the local host. so type:

jupyter notebook
