Unlike the notebook interface, it provides a lightweight, text-only REPL that works with any Jupyter kernel\u2014not just Python. You start it with `jupyter console` and optionally specify a kernel by name; it then connects to that kernel and lets you execute code interactively in a familiar shell-like environment.\n\nThe package depends on ipykernel, ipython, jupyter-client, jupyter-core, prompt-toolkit, pygments, pyzmq, and traitlets to provide syntax highlighting, command history, and kernel communication. It is designed for developers and researchers who prefer terminal-based workflows or need to work with non-Python kernels like Julia or R in an interactive console setting.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need a lightweight terminal-based Jupyter console for non-Python kernels and accept the maintenance risk. The package is abandoned (no updates since March 2023) but has low install friction, permissive licensing, and no known vulnerabilities. Its core dependencies remain actively maintained. Use it for interactive kernel work in resource-constrained or terminal-only environments, but do not rely on it for new features or bug fixes."},"id":"jupyter-console","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/jupyter-console","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/jupyter-console.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/jupyter-console/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2023-03-06","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"jupyter-console","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Jupyter terminal console"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":17840150,"position":1102,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"6.6.3"}
