Julia kernel for Jupyter notebooks
Then you may want to use Julia inside Jupyter Notebooks (the "Ju" in "Jupyter" is for Julia!) for this you need to install IJulia which you can do through Julia's built-in package manager Pkg.jl, this is as easy as
julia> ] add IJulia
where ]
opens the package manger. After this installing a Julia kernel for Jupyter is just
julia> using IJulia
julia> installkernel("Julia")
and you can choose "Julia" as a kernel in a Jupyter notebook.
