Which web browsers does Visual Python support?

Visual Python may work on many up-to-date browsers but it is optimized for Chrome.

I installed Visual Python, but the orange button does not appear on my Jupyter Notebook.

This can happen if the you're using a Python version is not 3.x.
  1. 1.
    Please upgrade to Python 3.x, or
  2. 2.
    If you are using multiple versions of Python, specify the pip version as 3 using the following command:
NOTE: Please uninstall before reinstalling.
pip uninstall visualpython
visualpy install —pip3
