Jupyter Notebook Viewer for Obsidian

Renders .ipynb (Jupyter notebook) files natively inside Obsidian — markdown cells as prose, code cells with syntax highlighting and execution-count badges, and outputs (text, tables, errors) inline.

Features

  • Markdown cells rendered using Obsidian's own renderer — wikilinks, bold, italics, and all standard formatting work
  • Code cells with Python syntax highlighting and [N] execution-count badges
  • Stream output (stdout/stderr) displayed as monospace text
  • Rich output — pandas and polars DataFrame HTML tables rendered with scrollable, theme-aware styling
  • Error tracebacks with ANSI escape codes stripped for clean display
  • Theme-aware — all colors use Obsidian CSS variables; works in light mode, dark mode, and any community theme
  • No build step — plugin is plain JavaScript, no Node.js or npm required

Installation

From the Community Plugin Directory

Search for "Jupyter Notebook Viewer" in Settings → Community plugins → Browse.

Manual installation

  1. Download main.js, manifest.json, and styles.css from the latest release.
  2. Create a folder <your-vault>/.obsidian/plugins/jupyter-viewer/.
  3. Place the three downloaded files into that folder.
  4. Open Obsidian, go to Settings → Community plugins, disable Restricted Mode if prompted, then enable Jupyter Notebook Viewer.

Usage

Click any .ipynb file in the Obsidian file explorer. It opens in the notebook viewer automatically.

To switch back to raw JSON (e.g., for copying cell contents), right-click the file and choose Open with → Default editor.

Supported output types

Output type Rendered as
stream (stdout) Monospace preformatted text
stream (stderr) Monospace text in error color
execute_result / display_data with text/html Scrollable HTML table
execute_result / display_data with text/plain Monospace preformatted text
error Exception header + cleaned traceback
image/png Inline image (base64)
