How to write Rust in JupyterLab

Generated with AI

This is going to be a super short article. After installing Rust and Jupyter Lab, you just need to run the following commands one-by-one.

cargo install evcxr_jupyter
evcxr_jupyter --install

You might get some errors, but the terminal should give you enough information to resolve them.

For example, if you installed Rust a while ago, you might have to run rustup update before running the two commands above.

Or if you are running macOS, you might have to run sudo xcodebuild -license and agree to the terms and conditions before running the commands above.

After the installation is complete, you can run jupyter lab and you should see a Jupyter notebook with Rust logo in the user interface.
