For installation, what I recommend (https://github.com/stevengj/julia-mit) is:
ENV["PYTHON"]="" ENV["JUPYTER"]="" Pkg.add("IJulia") Pkg.add("PyPlot") That way, it will automatically download and use its own Miniconda installation of Python and Jupyter, regardless of what the user has on their machine. Then, run Jupyter via using IJulianotebook() at the julia REPL prompt. Regarding PyPlot documentation, there is a ton of documentation out there for Matplotlib. The trick is just to translate the Python syntax to Julia/PyCall syntax.
