This VRE Lab workspace hosts a [JupyterLab](https://jupyterlab.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) environment that provides [Jupyter notebooks](https://jupyter.org/) alongside a number of useful applications accessible through the browser. This catalog item can easily be extended with additional applications to suit your research needs.

VRE Lab workspace is also available with a **Desktop** interface. Select Ubuntu Desktop as the flavor when creating your workspace and you can access it from the JupyterLab environment.

The Desktop option is particularly useful for GUI applications, 3D visualization tasks, and when combined with GPU workspaces (**VRE Lab GPU** catalog item), provides GPU-accelerated rendering for 3D analysis and extensive data processing from the desktop environment.

Login is done via [SRAM](https://servicedesk.surf.nl/wiki/spaces/IAM/pages/74226073/SURF+Research+Access+Management) via your institutional credentials.

The workspace includes Python environment management with [`uv`](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/).
