Jupyter Server
Jupyter Server documentation explains the server that supports Jupyter notebook applications.
About Jupyter Server
Jupyter Server is the backend that provides core services, APIs, and REST endpoints for Jupyter web applications. This documentation site describes that server. It also explains how Jupyter Server extensions use its framework and services to build applications and services.
Jupyter Server replaces the Tornado web server used by Jupyter Notebook, and Jupyter web applications are advised to move to it. The site includes a Migrating from Notebook Server page for this purpose. Documentation is organized for four groups: users, operators deploying applications to others, developers writing extensions and web applications, and contributors to the library. The source material describes the Jupyter Server as highly technical.
