Organize your Python development environment

Regarding the Python development environment, I used to use Jupyter Notebook from Anaconda installed in the local environment, and recently I am using Jupyter Notebook from Amazon SageMaker, but I have renewed the developer and installation of distributions such as Jupyter Notebook. I investigated and organized the methods. All functions are described at the summary level.

environment

Windows10

Target distribution

①Anaconda ②Python(IDLE) ③Jupyter Notebook ④Jupyter Lab

①Anaconda

The developer is Anaconda.

Anaconda is a development platform for data science, machine learning, scientific and technological computing, etc. As shown in Anaconda Navigator below, if you install Anaconda, you can also use Jupyter Notebook and Jupyter Lab, so it may be quick and easy to build an environment with Anaconda.

The installation procedure is omitted because it is posted on various sites, but [1. Please refer to Anaconda Download / Install / Settings.

②Python(IDLE)

The developer is Python Software Foundation (PSF). Paython official version.

If you install Python from the above official website, you will be able to use an integrated development environment for Python called IDLE (Integrated Deve Lopment Environment). Program interactively with an interactive shell, as shown below. I think this is the simplest configuration of the Python development environment.

The installation procedure is omitted because it is posted on various sites, but I think that you can refer to Install python on windows10.

③Jupyter Notebook

The developer is Project Jupyter.

Jupyter Notebook is a development environment that runs on a browser. You write a program in a file called a notebook and proceed with development while checking the execution results.

After installing Python, use the included package management tool called pip to get the package from the repository service called PyPI (Python Package Index).

Specifically, you can install it by typing pip install notebook at the command prompt and running it.

To start Jupyter Notebook, enter jupyter notebook at the command prompt.

④Jupyter Lab

The developer is the same as Jupyter Notebbok, Project Jupyter.

Jupyter Lab was developed by Project Jupyter as the successor to Jupyter Notebook, and is a development environment with more functions and improved operability than Jupyter Notebook.

After installing Python, use the included package management tool called pip to get the package from the repository service called PyPI (Python Package Index).

Specifically, you can install it by typing pip install jupyterlab at the command prompt and running it.

To start jupyter Lab, enter jupyter lab at the command prompt.

Summary

In summary, I think it will be either Anaconda if you want to install the whole thing quickly, or Pyrhon or (Python + Jupyter notebook) or (Python + Jupyter lab) if you want to install only what you need individually. ..

I think there are various other Python distributions such as PyCharm, but this time I explained the above.
