+## Developing using the interactive console
+
+You can launch the interactive shell console with:
+
+```shell
+bench console
+```
+
+To work with a more advanced interactive environment that supports full Jupyter Notebooks you can run JupyterLab inside the Python Venv, which will already be activated.
+
+First you'll need to foward port 8090 from your debug container. Launch VSCode command palette (cmd+shift+p or ctrl+shift+p), run the command `Forward a port` and type port `8090`.
+
+You can then install and launch jupyterlab appropriately:
+
+```shell
+pip install jupyterlab
+jupyter lab --ip=0.0.0.0 --no-browser --port=8090
+```
+
+Then replace `my.site` with your site and run the following code in a Jupyter cell:

+```python
+import frappe
+frappe.init(site='my.site', sites_path='/workspace/development/frappe-bench/sites')
+frappe.connect()
+frappe.local.lang = frappe.db.get_default('lang')
+frappe.db.connect()
