Extending the Notebook#
Warning
Please note that the extension system for Notebook 7 is radically different from the one used in Notebook 6.5.x and earlier. If you are looking for information on how to extend the classic Notebook, please refer to the documentation for NbClassic.
Note
With Notebook 7 being developed on top of JupyterLab and Jupyter Server, the frontend extension system is now based on the same extension system used by JupyterLab.
Server extensions are also now based on the same system used by Jupyter Server. You will find below a link to the relevant documentations.
Certain subsystems of the notebook server are designed to be extended or overridden by users. These documents explain these systems, and show how to override the notebook’s defaults with your own custom behavior.
