## Summary Add documentation for using Ballista in Jupyter notebooks to the Python user guide. ## What's Included New "Jupyter Notebook Support" section covering: - **Basic Usage**: How DataFrames automatically render as HTML tables via `_repr_html_()` - **Converting Results**: Examples of `to_pandas()`, `to_arrow_table()`, `to_polars()`, and `collect()` - **Example Notebook Workflow**: Complete example showing setup, exploration, analysis, and visualization with matplotlib - **Running a Local Cluster**: Using `setup_test_cluster()` for development/testing in notebooks ## Why This Change While Ballista already supports Jupyter notebooks (the `_repr_html_` method is proxied through to DataFusion), this wasn't documented. Users may not realize they can use Ballista effectively in notebooks without explicit documentation. This addresses part of #1398. ## Testing Documentation-only change. Verified the markdown renders correctly. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
