Hi,

Yes you have auto-complete built-in Jupyter, like you have in any other Jupyter environment. Simply hit the "Tab" key while writing code. This will open a menu with suggestions. Hit "Enter" to choose the suggestion.

There are many useful keyboard shortcut in Jupyter, have a look at https://www.cheatography.com/weidadeyue/cheat-sheets/jupyter-notebook/

Cheers,

Alexandre

Yes it is possible to use intellisense and autocomplete in Jupyter Notebook.

No matter how good you are in programming with respect to a language like python you may not be able to remember all the functions names or syntax or function parameters. So you may require to use intellisense or autocomplete feature of Jupyter notebook while programming in pandas, python and similar libraries.

I found a good explanation here.

Hello! I'm a hobby programmer using Jupyter. I enabled Hinterland autocoplete extension which worked nice. Later on I found you TabNine and wanted to try it too. Unfortunatelly It didn't work and also stopped Hinterland working. I tried with unstallation of TabNine to start Hinterland work again. But it didn't help. Could you please advise how I can repair it?
