i used the following instructions in a terminal
conda create --name exn
conda activate exn
conda install -c conda-forge jupyterlab
everything seems to have installed correctly, but when i type jupyterlab in the same terminal
i always get the web version, not the desktop version. what’s my error?
there is no error on your side.
when you start jupyterlab you start a local server and open it in your browser.
the standalone/desktop version can be downloaded from here.
it is still a web app running in electron.
Adding to the above, the command to start JupyterLab Desktop from terminal is jlab, you could youse jlab . to run in current directory or jlab notebook.ipynb
