Google Colab is a popular and free Jupyter notebook environment that requires no setup and runs entirely in the cloud. To install Taipy in Google Colab, follow these simple steps:
-
Open a new Colab notebook: Visit Google Colab and start a new notebook.
-
Run the installation command: In a new cell, enter the following command and run the cell to install the latest stable release of Taipy in your Colab environment:
!pip install --ignore-installed taipy
-
Start building your app: Follow this tutorial to build and run your Taipy web application directly within the Colab notebook.
!!! tip Remember that Google Colab environments are ephemeral. If you disconnect or restart your Colab session, you will need to reinstall Taipy.
