Why Won't My Favorite Notebook Extension Work in JupyterLab?
Daniel Goldfarb

Classic Jupyter Notebook extensions do not work in JupyterLab. This can be an impediment, for some people, to using JupyterLab.

The main focus of this talk is how to write Extensions for JupyterLab. We walk through a couple of practial examples, illustrating how to create and install a JupterLab extension. We also examine some details of the labextension framework.

We then discuss why classic notebook extensions don't work in JupyterLab, and propose strategies for porting your favorite nbextension to JupyterLab.
