It lets you download selected folders or the current directory as a compressed archive in your choice of format (zip, tar.gz, tar.bz2, tar.xz), and decompress archives directly within the browser without blocking the Jupyter interface. The extension runs as a server-side component backed by jupyter-server, with configuration options for buffer sizes and flush delays to tune performance for large transfers.\n\nThe extension adds context menu items to the file browser and respects format settings configured either in JLab settings or chosen per-operation. It is actively maintained, supports Python 3.10 through 3.14, and has no known security vulnerabilities. Installation is a single pip command followed by a server restart.","worth_installing":"Yes. This is a well-maintained, low-friction extension that solves a common workflow need\u2014archiving and downloading files\u2014without adding complexity. It has no security issues, a permissive license, and integrates cleanly into JupyterLab 3.0+.
