You can switch the matplotlib’s backend by %matplotlib <backend>. To switch back to your system’s default backend use %matplotlib auto or just simply %matplotlib.
There are many backends available such as gtk, qt, notebook, etc. I personally highly recommend the notebook (a.k.a. nbagg) backend. It is similar to inline but interactive, allowing zooming/panning from inside Jupyter.
For more info try: ?%matplotlib inside an IPython/Jupyter or IPython’s online documentation
