How to install packages on Jupyter notebook
This page describes how to install a Python package into a Jupyter project.
Hundreds of packages are already installed for several Python environments. Check first if the lib you’re looking for is already installed by trying to import and use it.
- Open the terminal. You can open it while you are working on a Jupyter notebook (see screenshot below).
- Run the command: `pip3 install --user PACKAGE_NAME`
Where PACKAGE_NAME is the name of your desired package (e.g. `pyspark`)
- Go back to the notebook. Restart the kernel to be able to import the newly installed library
4. Insert some code that uses the newly installed library and make sure it runs without errors.
