Hi Julien,

Thanks for your work on this!

Thanks for doing that package too!

I am looking at packaging spyder-notebook in the not-too-distant
future (ITP #871261), but it's waiting on some upstream work first.
Its tests (I think it's only the tests) use the jupyterlab JavaScript,
for example in spyder_notebook/server/src/tooltip.js:

import { CodeEditor } from '@jupyterlab/codeeditor';

So when you do successfully manage to package jupyterlab, will you
make these bits of JavaScript (or perhaps it's TypeScript) available
in a (or the) package?

Thanks!
