Use miniconda:

conda create -n [env_name] python=3.x.x

In the environment install jupyterlab before notebooks otherwise kernel will point towards base kernel.

- pip install jupyterlab jupyterlab-execute-time jupyterlab-git
- pip install pandas numpy pyarrow

Create a jupyter profile

jupyter notebook --generate-config

creates

/Users/bcarte18/.jupyter/jupyter_notebook_config.py

edit this file

c.NotebookApp.browser = 'firefox'

Issue with Juypter and Python Kernel

In the activate environment find out if there is a kernelspec

jupyter kernelspec list

navigate to that folder and delete kernel.json file.

Ignore this

ipython profile create default (ignore this)

This will create two files (not changed)

'/Users/[username/.ipython/profile_default/ipython_config.py' '/Users/[username]/.ipython/profile_default/ipython_kernel_config.py'
