+---
+
+As a researcher or data scientist, your work often lives in Jupyter Notebooks. But sharing those insights effectively usually means taking screenshots, messy copy-pasting, or exporting to PDF.
+
+Hugo Blox changes that. With the `{{</* notebook */>}}` shortcode, you can render your actual `.ipynb` files directly as beautiful, interactive blog posts or project pages. Keep your code, outputs, and narrative in one place.
+
+{{< toc mobile_only=true is_open=true >}}
+
+## Why publish notebooks?
+
+> [!TIP]
+> **Reproducible Research**: By publishing the actual notebook, you allow others to download and run your code, verifying your results and building upon your work.
+
+- **No more screenshots** – Render crisp code and vector plots directly from your source.
+- **Theme consistent** – Notebooks automatically adapt to your site's theme (including dark mode).
+- **Flexible sourcing** – Display notebooks from your `assets/` folder, page bundles, or even directly from a remote GitHub URL.
+- **Interactive** – Users can copy code blocks or download the full notebook to run locally.
+
+## Example: Data Science Workflow
+
+Below is a live example of a notebook rendered right here in this post. Notice how the markdown, code, and outputs (text, HTML, and JSON) are all preserved and styled.
+
+{{< notebook
+    src="hugoblox-onboarding.ipynb"
+    title="Launch Readiness Analysis"
+    show_metadata=true
+    line_numbers=true
+    dense=false
+    download_label="Download notebook"
+    show_outputs=true
+>}}
+
+## How to add a notebook
+
+1. **Save your notebook.** Place your `.ipynb` file in `assets/notebooks/` (for global access) or inside a page bundle (like `content/blog/my-post/analysis.ipynb`).
+2. **Add the shortcode.** In any Markdown page, simply use:
+   `{{</* notebook src="analysis.ipynb" */>}}`
+3. **Customize.** You can hide code cells for non-technical audiences (`show_code=false`) or just show the output (`show_outputs=true`).
+
+> [!IMPORTANT]
+> Hugo Blox respects your privacy. Notebook rendering happens statically at build time—no third-party services required.
+
+## Next steps
+
+- **Try it out:** Drop one of your existing notebooks into this site and see how it looks.
+- **Link your papers:** Use the Embed shortcode to link your notebook to your latest arXiv preprint or GitHub repository.
+- **Get help:** Join the community on [Discord](https://discord.gg/z8wNYzb) or check the [documentation](https://docs.hugoblox.com).

+Happy researching! 🚀
