Notebooks that dream with marimo
Shahmir Varqha

Notebooks are beloved for data exploration and education, but dreaded for production code. Poor reproducibility, hidden state, and out-of-order execution have kept them quarantined from "real" software engineering. Not to mention the thousand-line git merge conflicts.

Maybe it's time to rethink the notebook, and marimo does just that.
