Dockers for Jupyter Notebook

 Docker are like mini-Vms but without any kernel of its own and shares the host's kernel. Dockers are implemented based the Linux Kernel virtualization tools like Namespaces & C-Groups.

In the past few days I was trying to install and run Jupyter Notebook in my Windows PC, it has become increasingly frustrating as it takes a lot of time to install and has lot of other shortcoming.

Finally, I gave up installing Jupyter Notebook on my Windows PC, instead I used Docker to install the Jupyter Notebook in my Linux Mint Virtual Machine.

The best and easy way to run Jupyter Notebook Docker is by the following command:

docker run -p 10000:8888 -d -e JUPYTER_ENABLE_LAB=yes -v <your-work-dir>:/home/jovyan/work --name myjupyter jupyter/datascience-notebook

Use the "docker logs <docker-name>" command to get the URL & Token for the Jupyter Notebook.
