marimo is a reactive Python notebook: run a cell or interact with a UI element, and marimo automatically runs dependent cells (or marks them as stale), keeping code and outputs consistent.
marimo notebooks are stored as pure Python (with first-class SQL support), executable as scripts, and deployable as apps.
This is free and open source software.
Features include:
- Batteries-included: replaces jupyter, streamlit, jupytext, ipywidgets, papermill, and more.
- reactive: run a cell, and marimo reactively runs all dependent cells or marks them as stale.
- interactive: bind sliders, tables, plots, and more to Python — no callbacks required.
- git-friendly: stored as .py files.
- designed for data: query dataframes, databases, warehouses, or lakehouses with SQL, filter and search dataframes.
- AI-native: generate cells with AI tailored for data work.
- reproducible: no hidden state, deterministic execution, built-in package management.
- executable: execute as a Python script, parameterized by CLI args.
- shareable: deploy as an interactive web app or slides, run in the browser via WASM.
- reusable: import functions and classes from one notebook to another.
- testable: run pytest on notebooks.
- a modern editor: GitHub Copilot, AI assistants, vim keybindings, variable explorer, and more.
- use your favorite editor: run in VS Code or Cursor, or edit in neovim, Zed, or any other text editor.
