Code Review
This pull request updates the README.md to add an installation instruction for Jupyter Notebook under "Option 2: Jupyter Notebook". My review focuses on ensuring this instruction aligns with best practices for Python project environments and cross-platform compatibility. The main suggestion is to use pip install notebook within the project's virtual environment, rather than a system-level package manager like apt with jupyter-core, for better compatibility, consistency with the project's setup, and to ensure the correct package is installed.
| ```bash | ||
| sudo apt install jupyter-core | ||
| ``` |

The instruction to install jupyter-core using sudo apt has a few potential issues:
- OS Specificity:
aptis for Debian-based Linux systems (like Ubuntu) and won't work on macOS, Windows, or other Linux distributions. - System-wide Installation:
sudoinstalls the package system-wide. This project encourages using virtual environments (as detailed indocs/getting-started/installation.md). System-wide packages can conflict with or be ignored by virtual environments, leading to confusion about which Jupyter installation is being used and whether it has access to project dependencies. - Package Name:
jupyter-coreprovides core libraries. To runjupyter notebook, thenotebookpackage (i.e.,pip install notebook) is typically what's needed.
It's generally recommended to install Jupyter Notebook within the activated virtual environment using pip. This ensures it uses the correct Python interpreter and has access to the project's dependencies, aligning with the project's overall Python dependency management strategy.
Consider replacing this block with instructions to use pip for installing the notebook package.
| ```bash | |
| sudo apt install jupyter-core | |
| ``` | |
| # Make sure you have Jupyter Notebook installed in your activated virtual environment. | |
| # If not, you can install it by running: | |
| pip install notebook |
