Directly interacting with python console

is there a way to have jupiter notebooks to save things as at least mostly pyton + markdown, as opposed to JSON? JSON just makes interacting with the code on github much more difficult.

Even though jupyter notebook (.pynb) file content is in json, most editors, including GitHub’s online editor allows viewing and editing the actual formatted content. Example online viewers and editors:

• Github online in-place viewer
• Github online in-place editor
• nbviewer for very fast viewing of large notebooks

Interestingly, a new notebook variant, marimo, uses Python code instead of json as source format. However, I’m not sure if it can run code inside the Python environment in the running Slicer process.
