 ``ipynb.fs.full``. Full uppercase variable assignment will get evaluated as well.
 
+Relative imports
+================
+
+If you want to import notebooks from other notebooks relatively, you can easily
+do that with the following:
+
+```
+import ipynb.fs
+from .full.notebook1 import foo
+from .defs.notebook2 import bar
+```
+
+This will do the imports from other notebooks relative to the path of the notebook
+in which the importing is happening. The `import ipynb.fs` is boilerplate that is
+required for this feature to work properly.
 
 Releasing a package that contains notebook files

+Module to enable relative & absolute import of .ipynb files.
+
+This file in particular is useful to enable relative imports in
+interactive notebook usage. None of the code executes outside
+of an interactive notebook environment.
+
+Relative imports require two things:
+  - `__package__` is set
+  - The module that is `__package__` is already imported
+
+So we set __package__ in the notebook's namespace to the __package__
+of this variable. This will allow users to do imports like:
+
+```
+from .full.notebook1 import foo
+from .defs.notebook2 import bar
+```
+
+and they would work everywhere just fine.
