Getting Started

This section covers everything you need to get a working Beaker environment up and running, from installing the base package to bringing in the contexts and subkernels you want to use.

If this is your first time with Beaker, follow these pages in order:

  1. Installing Beaker — installs the base beaker-notebook package and the beaker CLI.
  2. Adding Contexts — installs prebuilt contexts published as Python packages (for example, a domain-specific context shared by your team).
  3. Adding Subkernels — installs prebuilt subkernels that add language support beyond the built-in Python, R, and Julia.
  4. Your First Notebook — a quick tour of the notebook interface and the agent.

If you want to build a context, subkernel, or integration rather than install one, head over to Development.

This site uses Just the Docs, a documentation theme for Jekyll.
