We have an FAQ on how we differ from Jupyter https://docs.marimo.io/faq.html#faq-jupyter
the main differences: we are reproducible and reactive. we also aim to be more maintainable, reusable, shareable, and interactive.
For JupyterLite: since we are reactive, you can run notebooks entirely as applications (https://marimo.app/l/e9wii1?mode=read). This means you can easily embed these in (or run them standlalone as) interactive documentation or interactive blog posts.

We have light/dark mode. We plan to add other themes (mostly will just be changing colors/radius).
You can inject any css that you want to directly in the notebook, but it is likely hard to style to match your exact website.

Yes, we do!

We’ve been thinking about it (but had no requests for it yet). I will look into adding it this week. If you would want to make the contribution, feel free to jump/chat in the discord.

Correct, it does not depend on Jupyter. It’s built from the ground up with different principles in mind

1. We do have a variable viewer. We have a few helper panels in the bottom left.
2. PDB support is planned and was scoped out yesterday.
Appreciate the feedback!

People have used marimo for production web apps. They won't get you as far as writing HTML/JS. But great for internal tools or external showcases, tutorials, interactive blogs, etc.
Our friends at SLAC use marimo for their internal exploration experiments and publishing interactive apps. He is an example: https://marimo.io/@public/signal-decomposition

It is not possible at the moment (we use iframes in our documentation), but once we support WASM, it should be possible.

Myles here (other core contributor) -
We are thrilled to see you have such a strong positive reaction. It means a lot coming from you - I initially learned web development using Django and landed my first contracting gig with Django.
I drifted away from writing Python and towards Typescript - but marimo has brought me back to writing Python.

We have considered adding more copilot features for refactoring or text-to-cell.
