+
+* PYNT Installation
+Install the codebook module with pip package manager:
+#+begin_src shell
+  $ pip install  git+https://github.com/ebanner/pynt
+#+end_src
+
+On ArchLinux, pip is not allowed to install by default, so pass an extra argument:
+#+begin_src shell
+  $ pip install --break-system-packages  git+https://github.com/ebanner/pynt
+#+end_src
+
+Open Emacs. Install ~pynt~ in Emacs through MELPA.
+#+begin_src emacs-lisp
+  M-x package-install RET pynt
+#+end_src
+
+To fix the following error
+#+begin_src text
+  ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'notebook.services'
+#+end_src
+
+Find the installation of PyNT:
+#+begin_src shell
+  $ grep -i kernelmanager /usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/codebook/manager.py
+  from jupyter_server.services.kernels.kernelmanager import MappingKernelManager
+#+end_src
+which is defined in the [[https://github.com/ebanner/pynt/blob/86cf9ce78d34f92bfd0764c9cbb75427ebd429e6/codebook/manager.py#L15][source code]] and change that line to
+#+begin_src python
+  from jupyter_server.services.kernels.kernelmanager import MappingKernelManager
+#+end_src
+
+* Java Runtime Installation
+PySpark Cookbook's recipes were tested in Emacs IDE using ~Java Runtime environment: 17.0.10.~. Set it as a default:
+#+begin_src shell
+  $ export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-17-openjdk
+  $ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-17-openjdk /usr/lib/jvm/default
+#+end_src
+
+* Install org-export
+#+begin_src shell
+  git clone https://github.com/nhoffman/org-export.git
+  cd org-export
+  sudo install -D -m 755 org-export* /usr/local/bin
+#+end_src
+
+* Export to HTML
+#+begin_src shell
+  make index.html
+  make test_ps2org.html
+#+end_src
+
+* Development Environment
+#+CAPTION: Emacs with org-mode as a development environment
+#+NAME:   fig:example
