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.
