+The Jupyter Notebook is a web application that allows you to create
+and share documents that contain live code, equations, visualizations
+and explanatory text.  Uses include: data cleaning and transformation,
+numerical simulation, statistical modeling, machine learning and much
+more.
+
+@deffn (Scheme Variable) jupyter-service-type
+This is the type of the agate service, whose value should be an
+@code{jupyter-service-type} object, as in this example:
+
+@lisp
+(service jupyter-service-type
+ (jupyter-configuration
+  (log-file "/var/log/jupyter.log")
+  (server-config
+   (kernels
+    (list jupyter-guile-kernel)))))
+
+@end lisp
+
+The example above tells the the Jupyter service to provide the
+@code{jupyter-guile-kernel} as an optional kernel.
+@end deffn
+
+@deftp {Data Type} jupyter-configuration
+Data type representing the configuration of Agate.
+
+@table @asis
+@item @code{jupyter-package} (default: @code{jupyter})
+The jupyter package to use.
+
+
+@item @code{kernels} (default: @code{'()}
+A list of kernel packages to use with the jupyter service.
+
+@item @code{root-dir} (default: @file{"/var/lib/jupyter/notebooks"})
+The directory where the jupyter server looks for jupyter notebooks.
+
+@item @code{log-file} (default: @code{#f})
+The location of the log file. If #f is given, no log is produced.
+
+@item @code{shell} (default: @code{(file-append bash "/bin/bash")}
+The location of the shell used when starting a web terminal (if it is configured to allow terminals).
+
+@item @code{server-config} (default: @code{#f})
+A file contianing the jupyter server's config file. If @code{#f} is given, an empty file is produced, and the default settings are used.
