IPython kernels for other languages - ashwini-data/ipython GitHub Wiki
The Kernel Zero, is of course IPython, which you can get through ipykernel, and still comes (for now) as a dependency of jupyter. The IPython kernel can be thought as a reference implementation, here are other available kernels:

Many kernels are available for installation on PyPI.
Several of these kernels are available in a PPA for Ubuntu 15.10 (wily)/16.04 (xenial). Add it with:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:chronitis/jupyter
sudo apt update
sudo apt install <kernelname>
The following kernel packages are available (along with their dependencies):
-
ihaskell(errata as of 2016-01-16:hlintintegration doesn't work, disable with:opt no-lint) ijuliaijavascriptjp-coffeescriptirkerneliruby-
gophernotes(xenial only)
(The repository doesn't contain ipython/jupyter - you'll still need to install it with pip)
- Jove - notebook interface in Java; provides Spark and Scala kernels
- Brython Magics - A magic trick to allow you to use Brython code (client-side) in other notebooks
