How do I launch Spyder-Notebook?

Question

I\'ve installed the spyder-notebook plugin via conda install spyder-notebook -c spyder-ide as per the instructions here. How do I actually open a .ipynb

Answer 1

(Spyder maintainer here) The notebook is started automatically. To see it in the Spyder interface, you need to look for a tab called Notebook and click it.

Then to open a notebook you need to click on the Options menu of the Notebook pane (the one to its right with a cog icon) and press Open. In Spyder 4 we're going to simplify that by using the Open button of the main Spyder toolbar.
