When your environment lacks required packages, you can install them dynamically using either mamba or pip commands directly in a notebook cell or terminal.

Mamba installation​

!mamba install pandas

Pip installation​

!pip install bqplot

The following features are supported:

  • Conda package installation from channels:
    • conda-forge
    • emscripten-forge (use !mamba command)
  • Pure Python packages from PyPI (use !pip command)
  • Persistent installations: Installed packages remain available between sessions

Notebook.link supports dynamic loading of JupyterLab extensions! For example:

!mamba install ipyleaflet

from ipyleaflet import Map
Map(center=(52, 10), zoom=5)
