Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The basic documentation on the jupyter notebook usage requirements is missing. This creates confusions for new users (like me) who expected hvplot to give nice plots with a raw python interpreter but then saw nothing.
Initially I asked about this in the HoloViz forum. Folks there suggested me to bring this up as a formal Github issue. So here I am.
By the way, this is really a "documentation improvements" rather than "feature request", but there's no issue category "documentation improvements" for me to select so I just went with the "feature request" category. Documentation is important, and you folks should consider making a dedicated issue category for it, like the polars Github new-issue page which has a "Documentation improvement" section.
