pyforest is a Python library that automatically imports popular data science libraries like pandas, numpy, and sklearn on demand in Jupyter notebooks. When you use a library without importing it, pyforest lazily imports it and writes the import statement into the first notebook cell, keeping notebooks reproducible.

Use cases

• stop writing the same imports in every jupyter notebook
• automatically import pandas numpy matplotlib in python notebooks
• make jupyter notebooks reproducible without manual import statements
• speed up exploratory data analysis workflow in notebooks
• avoid looking up exact import statements like matplotlib.pyplot as plt

When to choose

• you work in Jupyter notebooks daily and start many new notebooks
• you want lazy imports of common data science libraries without boilerplate
• you want import statements saved into the notebook for shareability

When to avoid

• you work in scripts or production code where explicit imports are best practice
• you need libraries not covered by pyforest's predefined import list
• you use IDEs or tools that auto-manage imports already
