## Sunrising the Jupyter Notebook 7
11
+
A major upgrade to the Jupyter Notebook interface is coming with Notebook 7! This
12
+
upgrade will bring a heap of new features, but will also break backwards
13
+
compatibility with many classic Notebook features and customizations.
14
+
15
+
This set of guides is here to help you migrate your Classic Notebook setup and
16
+
extensions to the new Notebook 7.
17
+
18
+
## What you need to do
19
+
20
+
For users who don't use extensions or other customizations, you will seamlessly
21
+
receive the new Notebook 7 when you `pip install notebook` once version 7 is
22
+
released out of beta, along with all its new features, like realtime
23
+
collaboration, debugger, and theming.
24
+
25
+
For users who need to use extensions or other customizations, you have a couple
26
+
of options:
27
+
28
+
- Look for Notebook 7 compatible versions of the extensions you already use,
29
+
and [find replacements for those that are not available]
30
+
31
+
- If you need to maintain compatibility with the Classic Notebook for extensions
32
+
or other customizations that are critical to your workflows, you can switch to
33
+
[nbclassic], which will provide compatibility with the old notebook interface
34
+
and support during an intermediate transition period to Notebook 7
35
+

+

Development has mostly moved to alternative user interfaces like JupyterLab, which is a more
16
-
modern and extensible web application. This has resulted in a lot of new
17
-
features and improvements in JupyterLab, but also in a lot of new features and
18
-
improvements that were not possible to integrate to the Classic Notebook.

For a while the plan was to progressively _sunset_ the Classic Notebook and not maintain it anymore. However, the Classic Notebook is still widely used and it is still the default user interface for Jupyter in many scenarios. Many users and organizations have not been able to switch to JupyterLab yet. For some users, JupyterLab can also be a more complex environment to use, especially for beginners.

Following the feedback from the community, it was decided late 2021 to continue developing the Jupyter Notebook application and _sunrise_ it as Notebook 7. Notebook 7 is built on top of JupyterLab components and delivers new features like realtime collaboration, debugger, and theming.
