# Scala Notebooks

[Jupyter notebooks](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/datascience/jupyter-notebooks#:~:text=Jupyter%20Notebooks%20in%20VS%20Code,and%20through%20Python%20code%20files.) can combine Markdown text and executable Python or Scala code.

BlackDiamond Studio has pre-configured all the requirements, so you can easily start a new Jupyter notebook and write some code.

#### To create a new Jupyter notebook:

1. Create a new Jupyter notebook using the command palette (Ctrl+Shift+P) or create a new .ipynb file in the workspace.
