+question: 'How to fix the tqdm warning: "IProgress not found" in Jupyter (missing
+  ipywidgets)?'
+sort_order: 42
+---
+
+This warning happens when `tqdm` tries to display an interactive progress bar in Jupyter, but the Jupyter widget backend (`ipywidgets`) isn’t installed (or isn’t visible in your currently active environment).
+
+To fix it:
+- Install `ipywidgets` in your active environment (the one where you run the notebook).
+- If you use `uv`, run:
+
+```bash
+uv add ipywidgets
+```
+
+- Otherwise use one of:
+  - `pip install ipywidgets`
+  - `conda install -c conda-forge ipywidgets`
+- Restart the Jupyter kernel / reload the notebook (or restart the VS Code notebook session) so the newly installed package is detected.
