Jupyter: instead of IPython notebook


If you google how to install or use IPython notebook, most of links are still talk about IPython 3 or earlier. It doesn't work for one year.

In fact, There is a big split happened in April 2015. from IPython 4.0, Notebook is not a part of it. Notebook moved to new project Jupyter. IPython will be focused on interactive Python.


IPython is a growing project, with increasingly language-agnostic components. IPython 3.x was the last monolithic release of IPython, containing the notebook server, qtconsole, etc. As of IPython 4.0, the language-agnostic parts of the project: the notebook format, message protocol, qtconsole, notebook web application, etc. have moved to new projects under the name Jupyter. IPython itself is focused on interactive Python, part of which is providing a Python kernel for Jupyter.
PS: Jupyter could work with R also.
