Not sure if this is the right space, but I want to use a spell check option for markdown cells in a Jupyter notebook via JupyterHub.

I have the spell-check extension installed on notebooks that I can run via jupyter notebook from my command line, but I don't know how or if I can add this extension to the notebooks that are used in JupyterHub.

Has anyone done this specifically for JupyterHub notebooks?

@Justin Richling I haven't experimented with this in a while, but I thought that if you installed a jupyterlab extension in a specific python environment and then accessed that environment/kernel from the hub, you should have access to those extensions. If that doesn't work you might want to check with @Negin Sobhani about how to access jupyterlab extensions from the hub.
