notebook VS mdBook

How about something like [`input`](magic-link)? I came up with this for https://codeberg.org/macchiato ( though it's not yet implemented in the new project, just in the predecessor, https://github.com/ResourcesCo/notebook ). The backquotes differentiate from non-magic links. (I tried badges, but they aligned weirdly.)

You could use [`data.mrr`](https://evidence.dev/md/value) or any other internal DSL you can come up with.

Another thing you could do is just decide against MDX the format and keep the style and transform inline codeblocks that match.

That you said Markdown to me says you aren't on board with using an incompatible syntax.

Markdown can literally be code. RMarkdown is this. Before I learned of RMarkdown I had written something to extract code blocks with filenames that are visible in the rendered page (since hiding it at the end of the first triple backquote codefence isn't great for visibility). I'm currently working on a notebook tool. https://github.com/ResourcesCo/macchiato/blob/main/scripts/m... https://github.com/ResourcesCo/notebook

I'm responsible for a number of Java products. I try to provide high-quality Javadoc for all public library interfaces, library user's guides where appropriate, and development guides for applications. The latter two take the form of MDBook documents (https://rust-lang.github.io/mdBook/), with the document source living in the GitHub repo so that it's tied to the particular software release in a natural way.

My org has used mdBook: https://rust-lang.github.io/mdBook/ (That link is itself a rendered mdBook, so that'll give you an idea of the feature set.)

(While it's definitely a Rust "thing", if you just have a set of .md files, all you need is a "SUMMARY.md" (which contains the ToC) and a small config file; i.e., you don't have to have any Rust code to use it, and it works fine without. We document a large, mostly non-Rust codebase with it.)

If you want the lowest friction, open source, easily extensible Markdown to Web, Kindle, PDF, etc. tool, highly recommend mdBook: https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook it’s written in Rust, but you don’t have to know any Rust to use it. And then wing is all CSS; for which there are many good (free) themes.
