LabNow Open is an open-source, containerized AI/data science workspace. It bundles a lightweight Web Console that lets you manage and launch common data science services — all from a single browser tab, with minimal setup.

What's Included

• JupyterLab — interactive notebooks and data exploration
• VS Code (code-server) — full-featured code editor in the browser
• RStudio Server — R development environment
• Shiny Server — interactive R web applications
• Hermes — gateway and dashboard for AI tool orchestration
• OpenClaw — AI agent platform

All services run behind a unified Caddy reverse proxy on port 80, managed by supervisord for process lifecycle control.

Image Variants

All variants are built from a single Dockerfile and differ only in which base image they layer on top of:

Image Tag	Base Image	What It Contains
labnow-open-dev	developer:latest	Minimal dev tools + Web Console
labnow-open-data-science	data-science-dev:latest	Full data science stack (Python, R, Jupyter)
labnow-open-hermes	hermes:latest	Hermes gateway + dashboard
labnow-open-openclaw	openclaw:latest	OpenClaw AI agent platform

Images are published on both Quay.io and Docker Hub.

Quick Start

Run the full data science variant with a single command:

docker run --rm -it \
  --name labnow-open \
  -p 8888:80 \
  quay.io/labnow/labnow-open-data-science:latest

Then open http://localhost:8888/ in your browser. The Web Console will show all available services — click any card to launch it.
