A reactive notebook for Python that runs in browser, powered by Pyodide. I have been using it extensively for teaching Python to non-STEM students that do not need the added friction of navigating the CLI or filesystem hierarchy.

Hello from the original creator of marimo. Do you have teaching materials to share? I would love to see how one might teach Python with a reactive notebook

sending you an email!

Hey akshayka, I'm not that teacher, but I am a fan, and I notice that marimo sharing would be easier if export and import from normal boring Spyder/Jupyter percent formatted .py files worked by default, instead of indented `@app.cell` decorated functions, and same for for plain Markdown, where right now it has "{.python.marimo}" code blocks with triple backticks, that would normally just say Python. Import and export that used more normal metadata (like comments) would be amazing and would make pointing people to marimo easier. Any chance of this?
