Amazon SageMaker Studio Lab UI overview

Amazon SageMaker Studio Lab extends the JupyterLab interface. Previous users of JupyterLab will notice similarities between the JupyterLab and Studio Lab UI, including the workspace. For an overview of the basic JupyterLab interface, see The JupyterLab Interface.

The following image shows Studio Lab with the file browser open and the Studio Lab Launcher displayed.

You will find the menu bar at the top of the screen. The left sidebar contains icons to open file browsers, resource browsers, and tools. The status bar is located at the bottom-left corner of Studio Lab.

The main work area is divided horizontally into two panes. The left pane is the file and resource browser. The right pane contains one or more tabs for resources, such as notebooks and terminals.
