A new look on jupyter notebook for Windows users

Using git bash in jupyter noteobok on Windows

Since https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/pull/3087 (notebook version 5.3.0), there is a support for terminal on Windows!

So if you have notebook version 5.3.0 or better installed (check by jupyter notebook --version ), you can new “terminal” in your menu!

The default shell is “powershell.exe”, but you can change it in .jupyter/jupyter_notebook_config.py

The following is a config to use Git Bash:

c.NotebookApp.terminado_settings = {
    'shell_command': ['C:\\Program Files\\Git\\bin\\bash.exe']
}

Restart your notebook and see the change!
