Setting Up Run by Line and Debugging for Notebooks

If you're using Anaconda environments

1. Use Anaconda Navigator or an Anaconda prompt to install ipykernel 6.2.0 into your desired notebook environment.
2. Close and reopen VS Code and your desired notebook. The Developer: Reload Window command works well for this.

If you're using Pip environments

1. Open a Python terminal and activate your desired notebook environment.
2. Run pip install -U ipykernel
3. Close and reopen VS Code and your desired notebook. The Developer: Reload Window command works well for this.

Troubleshooting

1. Ensure that ipykernel version 6.0 or greater is installed in the environment you're using for your notebook.
2. Ensure you're using VS Code v1.60 or greater.
3. Ensure you're have Jupyter Extension v2021.9 or greater installed.
4. Ensure that you're using a kernel based on Python 3.7 or greater.
5. Ensure you've restarted VS Code after verifying all of the above.
