Jupyter Notebook is an open-source web application that lets you create and share interactive code, visualizations, and more. This tool can be used with several programming languages, including Python, Julia, R, Haskell, and Ruby. It is often used for working with data, statistical modeling, and machine learning.

Jupyter Notebooks (or just “Notebooks”) are documents produced by the Jupyter Notebook app which contain both computer code and rich text elements (paragraph, equations, figures, links, etc.) which aid in presenting and sharing reproducible research. They can therefore be an excellent tool to use for data-driven or programming-based presentations, or as a teaching tool.

This tutorial will walk you through setting up Jupyter Notebook to run from an Ubuntu 20.04 server, as well as demonstrate how to connect to and use the notebook from a local machine via tunnelling. By the end of this guide, you will be able to run Python 3 code using Jupyter Notebook running on a remote server.

Prerequisites

In order to complete this guide, you should have a fresh Ubuntu 20.04 server instance with a basic firewall and a non-root user with sudo privileges configured. You can learn how to set this up by running through our initial server setup tutorial.
