In 2011, a new software called Jupyter notebooks (now referred to as JupyterLab) innovated software that effectively lowered the barrier of entry into coding . Jupyter notebooks are visually appealing and easier to work with; they appear in browser windows and look like digital workflows or electronic lab notebooks (Fig ). Jupyter notebook interface is similar to other programs, such as Maple and Mathematica but offers a python coding environment but has been more popular to use in classrooms and labs since 2018. In 2021, Nature named Jupyter as one of ten transformational computing projects . Using Jupyter Lab in the classroom enables introducing computing to chemists without requiring semesters of intro to programming courses and can allow them tools that can get them exposure and access quickly. This is extremely beneficial in that it opens the door to introducing novel skills to individuals who would not be apt to trying it out. It provides a starting place for students to test the waters and decide if they want to gain more background, training and knowledge in computer science.
