This Jupyter notebook/Pelican blog post demonstrates what you can do when you combine Pelican and NBConvert with a simple Pelican Plugin, pelican-jupyter-reader.

The pelicanconf.py for this demo includes a configuration object that is passed to NBConvert. Here are the relevant bits in pelicanconf.py:

!tail -n20 ../pelicanconf.py

# Instantiate a config object and call it NBCONVERT_CONFIG
from traitlets.config import Config
NBCONVERT_CONFIG = Config()

# This removes Jupyter input prompts
NBCONVERT_CONFIG.HTMLExporter.exclude_input_prompt = True

# This removes empty cells
NBCONVERT_CONFIG.RegexRemovePreprocessor.enabled = True
NBCONVERT_CONFIG.RegexRemovePreprocessor.patterns = ['\s*\Z']

# This makes Jupyter magic cells have proper code highlighting
# regardless of the language of the notebook kernel
NBCONVERT_CONFIG.HighlightMagicsPreprocessor.enabled = True

# This directs the NBConvert to a custom Jinja2 template
# names demo.tpl
NBCONVERT_CONFIG.HTMLExporter.template_path.append('.')
NBCONVERT_CONFIG.HTMLExporter.template_file = 'demo'

And, here is the custom NBConvert template (you can also just use one of the standard templates like basic, or full.

!cat ../demo.tpl

{% extends "basic.tpl" %}

{% block codecell %}
  {% if "red-border" in cell.metadata.get('tags', []) %}
  <div style="border:thin solid red">
    {{ super() }}
  </div>
  {% elif "display-none" in cell.metadata.get('tags', []) %}
  <div style="display:none">
    {{ super() }}
  </div>
  {% else %}
  {{ super() }}
  {% endif %}
{% endblock codecell %}

{% block input_group %}
  {% if "toggle-code" in cell.metadata.get('tags', []) %}
  <button class="toggle-button">Toggle Code</button>
  <div style="display: none">
    {{ super() }}
  </div>
  {% else %}
  {{ super() }}
  {% endif %}
{% endblock %}

The combination of custom NBConvert template and the pelicanconf.py settings from above enable the code styles and interactity below.

%%javascript
// note that Pygments uses the Javascript lexer here
console.log('Hello, world!')
const s = 'something'

%%bash
# ...and the Bash lexer here
echo "Hello, world!"

Hello, world!

# By combining cell tags and a custom nbconvert template, we can style the output 
# of different cells easily. This cell has the tag "red-border," and that tag is 
# handled in "demo.tbl" (you can find "demo.tpl" in the base directory of this 
# demo site).

print('This cell will have a red border.')

This cell will have a red border.

The empty cells below won't apper in your Pelican post.
