marimo-md-export 0.2.1

A minimal solution for exporting marimo notebooks to markdown *with* rendered HTML outputs, designed for mkdocs/zensical sites.

marimo-md-export

A uv tool that wraps marimo export, extracts rendered outputs from the HTML export, and injects them into the markdown export. The result is a self-contained markdown document with embedded figures (as base64 <img> tags) and tables (as GFM or HTML).

Full documentation

Quick start

Mark cells in your marimo .py notebook with # @output: <label>:

# @output: my_figure
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.plot(x, np.sin(x))
fig

Then run:

uvx marimo-md-export notebook.py output.md

If you want the tool to be available globally you can "install" it with

uv tool install marimo-md-export

Integrating with documentation sites

marimo-md-export is designed to produce markdown pages for static site generators like mkdocs (Python) or zensical (Rust). Both work identically for this purpose.

1. Add as a docs dependency:

uv add --group docs marimo-md-export

2. Add a build step that converts your notebook(s) before building the site.

For example, this project uses the following just command to build the docs:

docs:
  marimo-md-export examples/notebook.py docs/example.md \
    --html-output docs/example-notebook.html
  zensical build

This runs marimo-md-export to produce a self-contained markdown page (with any # @output: cells injected as figures/tables), then builds the site.
