Jupyter Accessibility

Welcome to the Team Compass for the Jupyter Accessibility project.

This group was formed in early 2019. Its goal is to gather stakeholders interested in working to make Jupyter’s core user-facing software and related tooling accessible.

These core user-facing software include:

• Classic Jupyter Notebook

• JupyterLab

• JupyterHub

Warning

As of August 2022 this software is not accessible. Significant work will be required to reach that goal.

In the meantime, you can read the JupyterLab accessibility statement to get a better understanding of its state and limitations:
