IPython/Jupyter Notebook Support

Prerequisite

Prior to working, make sure that the following prerequisite is met:

Jupyter Notebook is properly installed on your computer. To learn how to install Jupyter Notebook, refer to the official documentation.

PyCharm supports Jupyter Notebook, recognizes *.ipynb files, and allows you to edit them.

Jupyter Notebook files are marked with icon.

A Notebook file <file name>.ipynb shows document cells including code, text, equations etc.

Notebook support includes:

Support for local and (in the Professional edition) remote interpreters. See section IPython/Jupyter Notebook Support for details.
Coding assistance:
- Error and syntax highlighting.
- Code completion.
- Ability to create line comments (Ctrl+Slash).
Search and replace facilities: in a file, in path.
Dedicated kernel view: Jupyter Notebook tab in the Run tool window.
Ability to run cells.

Open the Jupyter Notebook page of the Settings/Preferences dialog.
On this page, select or clear the Markdown cells rendering enabled option, and specify the username and password. Note that for the single-user notebooks these fields are optional - leave them blank.
Click the link Configure remote interpreter. You'll find yourself at the Project Interpreter page.
Configure the remote interpreter, as described in the section Configuring Remote Interpreters via Deployment Configuration.

To create an *.ipynb file:

Do one of the following:
- Right-click the target directory in the Project tool window, and choose New on the context menu.
- Press Alt+Insert
Choose the option Jupyter Notebook.
