There are two modes: edit mode and command mode. This means that the keyboard does different things depending on which mode the Notebook is in. Starting with IPython 2.0, the Jupyter Notebook has a modal user interface. The notebook has an interactive tour of these elements that can be started in the “Help:User Interface Tour” menu item. The notebook UI has the following main areas: This UI allows you to run code and author notebook documents interactively. If you create a new notebook or open an existing one, you will be taken to the notebook user interface (UI). This view provides a convenient way to track notebooks that you start as you navigate the file system in a long running notebook server. To see all of your running notebooks along with their directories, click on the “Running” tab: You can also use the same operations on directories and files when applicable. To shutdown, delete, duplicate, or rename a notebook check the checkbox next to it and an array of controls will appear at the top of the notebook list (as seen below). Notebooks remain running until you explicitly shut them down closing the notebook’s page is not sufficient. The notebook list shows green “Running” text and a green notebook icon next to running notebooks (as seen below). Notebooks and files can be uploaded to the current directory by dragging a notebook file onto the notebook list or by the “click here” text above the list. Some of the kernels in the screenshot below may not exist as an option to you. Which kernels are listed depend on what’s installed on the server. To create a new notebook, click on the “New” button at the top of the list and select a kernel from the dropdown (as seen below). By clicking on these breadcrumbs or on sub-directories in the notebook list, you can navigate your file system. The top of the notebook list displays clickable breadcrumbs of the current directory. For example, here is a screenshot of the dashboard page for the examples directory in the Jupyter repository: Its main purpose is to display the notebooks and files in the current directory. The dashboard serves as a home page for the notebook. When you first start the notebook server, your browser will open to the notebook dashboard.
