Themes and Extensions for Jupyter notebook

I am taking the wonderful fast.ai course thought by Jermey Howard and Rachel. We use jupyter notebooks in classes and it is always nice to see how Jermey’s notebook looks.

It has few tweaks like

  • collapsible headings
  • better tables and fonts

Learnt that he uses a themes for the visual customizations and an extensions to allow collapsing of headers from his reply in forums

The theme script can be installed from jupyter-themes repo

and for the themes install grade3 theme.

    jt -t grade3

The extensions can be installed from jupyter_contrib_nbextensions repo

Quick instructions

    pip install jupyter_contrib_nbextensions

Configure collapsible headings extension from notebook menu

    Edit -> nbextensions config
