Jupyter Notebook is an open-source web application that allows researchers and data scientists to create and share documents containing live code, equations, visualizations, and narrative text. It is widely used for collaborative data analysis, scientific computing, and reproducible research workflows. JupyterHub extends this to multi-user environments, enabling team-based collaboration on shared infrastructure. It is particularly relevant in Environmental Science, Social Sciences, Education, Citizen Science and Software Engineering.

Jupyter Notebook supports co-production, open source and distributed collaboration and is suited for pair work, small teams and organizational settings in remote, hybrid and in-person settings.

Jupyter Notebook is classified as a well-documented tool, indicating broad adoption and available documentation. It is open source (licensed under BSD-3-Clause), available on Web, macOS, Windows, Linux.
