DVC doesn’t currently have any special integrations for Jupyter, but we’ve seen users use their notebooks as regular scripts by running them through [nbconvert](https://nbconvert.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) and passing that command to `dvc run`. Please refer to [https://dvc.org/doc/command-reference/run](https://dvc.org/doc/command-reference/run) for more information on how to use `dvc run`.

[Jupyter Notebook/ JupyterLab](https://jupyter.org/)/ [IPython Notebook](https://ipython.org/ipython-doc/1/interactive/notebook.html) files are basically source code text files. As such, **it’s best to version them with Git!** However, there are caveats to be aware of, for which we can recommend to search for best practices, such as [http://mateos.io/blog/jupyter-notebook-in-git/](http://mateos.io/blog/jupyter-notebook-in-git/)
