Marimo – open-source reactive Python notebook – running in WASM
Hi HN! Last month, we shared marimo [1][2], an open-source reactive notebook for Python. For those who missed it, marimo notebooks are reproducible, stored as Python files, executable as Python scripts, and deployable as web apps. It’s now possible to run marimo notebooks entirely in the browser via WebAssembly (WASM). - A marimo tutorial as a WASM notebook: https://marimo.app/l/c7h6pz - Training a neural network with Karpathy’s micrograd: https://marimo.app/l/xpd4te - Visualizing attractors, as a read-only app:…
Marimo – open-source reactive Python notebook – running in WASM launched on February 29, 2024 with 102 votes, #566 of 3,962 launches that month and more than 90% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 2 years on.
In plain words
Marimo is an open-source reactive notebook for Python that can run entirely in a web browser via WebAssembly. Notebooks are stored as Python files, executable as scripts, and deployable as web apps. Users can write and experiment with Python code without installing it locally, and easily share notebooks through generated links. It's designed for data scientists, educators, and developers who want reproducible, shareable computational environments.

Marimo – an open-source reactive notebook for Python2024 · github.com · ▲448Hi HN! We’re excited to share marimo, an open-source reactive notebook for Python [1]. marimo aims to solve well-known problems with traditional notebooks [2]: marimo notebooks are reproducible (no hidden state), git-friendly (stored as Python files), executable as Python scripts, and deployable as web apps. GitHub repo: https://github.com/marimo-team/marimo In marimo, a notebook’s code, outputs, and program state are always consistent. Run a cell and marimo reacts by automatically running the cells that reference its declared variables. Delete a cell and marimo scrubs…
WASM-powered codespaces for Python notebooks on GitHub2025 · docs.marimo.io · ▲204Hi HN! Last year, we shared marimo [1], an open-source reactive notebook for Python with support for execution through WebAssembly [2]. We wanted to share something new: you can now run marimo and Jupyter notebooks directly from GitHub in a Wasm-powered, codespace-like environment. What makes this powerful is that we mount the GitHub repository's contents as a filesystem in the notebook, making it really easy to share notebooks with data. All you need to do is prepend 'marimo.app' to any Python notebook on GitHub. Some examples: - Jupyter Notebook:…
Molab, a cloud-hosted Marimo notebook workspace2025 · molab.marimo.io · ▲123We launched marimo [1], an open-source reactive Python notebook, last year on HackerNews. Today, the most popular recent feature request in Google Colab’s issue tracker asks for marimo support in Colab [2]. Rather than try to convince Google to replace their notebook with marimo, we decided to just build our own cloud-hosted notebook service instead. We're calling this molab (mo for marimo), and we're launching it today. You can try it at https://molab.marimo.io Some features: - Persistent storage - Link sharing (notebooks are public but undiscoverable, like secret GitHub Gists) -…
Marimo pair – Reactive Python notebooks as environments for agentsApr 2026 · github.com · ▲140Hi HN! We're excited to share marimo pair [1] [2], a toolkit that drops AI agents into a running marimo notebook [3] session. This lets agents use marimo as working memory and a reactive Python runtime, while also making it easy for humans and agents to collaborate on computational research and data work. GitHub repo: https://github.com/marimo-team/marimo-pair Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6uaqtchDnoc marimo pair is implemented as an agent skill. Connect your agent of choice to a running notebook with: /marimo-pair pair with me on…
Marimo VS Code extension – Python notebooks built on LSP and uvNov 2025 · github.com · ▲65Hi HN! We're excited to release our VS Code/Cursor extension for marimo [1], an open-source, reactive Python notebook. This extension provides a native experience for working with marimo notebooks, a long-requested feature that we’ve worked hard to get right. An LSP-first architecture The core of our extension is a marimo notebook language server (marimo-lsp [2]). As far as we know, it’s the first notebook runtime to take this approach. The Language Server Protocol (LSP) [3] offers a small but important set of notebook-related capabilities that we use for document and kernel syncing;…
