Outputs

The last expression of a cell is its visual output, rendered above the cell. Outputs are included in the “app” or read-only view of the notebook. marimo comes out of the box a number of elements to help you make rich outputs, documented in the API reference.

Markdown

Markdown is written with the marimo library function mo.md. Writing markdown programmatically lets you make dynamic markdown: interpolate Python values into markdown strings, conditionally render your markdown, and embed markdown in other objects.

Here’s a simple hello world example:

import marimo as mo

name = mo.ui.text(placeholder="Your name here")
mo.md(
  f"""
  Hi! What's your name?

  {name}
  """
)

mo.md(
  f"""
  Hello, {name.value}!
  """
)

Notice that marimo knows how to render marimo objects in markdown: can just embed them in mo.md() using an f-string, and marimo will figure out how to display them!

For other objects, like matplotlib plots, wrap them in mo.as_html() to tap into marimo’s media viewer:

mo.md(
  f"""
  Here's a plot!

  {mo.as_html(figure)}
  """
)
