Important

This documentation covers IPython versions 6.0 and higher. Beginning with version 6.0, IPython stopped supporting compatibility with Python versions lower than 3.3 including all versions of Python 2.7.

If you are looking for an IPython version compatible with Python 2.7, please use the IPython 5.x LTS release and refer to its documentation (LTS is the long term support release).

Support for PEP-678 Exception Notes

Ultratb now shows PEP 678 notes, improving your debugging experience on Python 3.11+ or with libraries such as Pytest and Hypothesis.
