Using Macaulay2 with Jupyter

To install the Macaulay2 Jupyter kernel and start Jupyter, run the following. Note that Macaulay2 should already be installed on your system.

mkdir m2-jupyter
python3 -m venv m2-jupyter
source m2-jupyter/bin/activate
pip install git+https://github.com/Macaulay2/Macaulay2-Jupyter-Kernel
python3 -m m2_kernel.install
jupyter lab

At this point, your web browser should open with an instance of JupyterLab. Click on the "M2" icon to open up to a new Macaulay2 notebook.

After it's installed, then further sessions only need the following:

source m2-jupyter/bin/activate
jupyter lab

Try out one of the following to change to a "prettier" output mode:

--%mode=webapp

--%mode=texmacs
