Get Started

Take your first steps with Jupyter Book.

Jupyter Book is a distribution of the MyST Document Engine. Every Jupyter Book is also a MyST project, and building a Jupyter Book means building a MyST project. In fact, if you’re a power user and prefer a more flexible and less-opinionated workflow, we suggest you use the MyST engine directly!

For learning how to use Jupyter Book, this site will step you through high-level concepts, tutorials for step-by-step learning, and how-to guides to get things done. It will focus on use-cases for multi-document projects, like community knowledge bases and multi-page books.[1]

Footnotes
  1. The Jupyter Book and MyST documentation follow the Diataxis documentation framework. Within that framework, we aim for jupyterbook.org to contain tutorials and how-to guides, and the MyST guide to focus on reference documentation and deeper explanation.
