About:
This Homebrew cask installs a Quick Look plugin that enables macOS users to preview Jupyter Notebook (.ipynb) files directly in Finder. It renders the notebook's markdown and code cells as a static HTML preview, eliminating the need to open the file in a full Jupyter environment. This provides a fast, convenient way to inspect notebook contents and structure at a glance.

Key Features:

Seamless integration with macOS Quick Look
Renders .ipynb files as readable HTML previews
Eliminates the need to launch Jupyter for simple viewing
Lightweight and easy to install via Homebrew

Use Cases:

Quickly reviewing Jupyter Notebook contents without starting a server
Browsing data science projects and code snippets in Finder
Verifying notebook structure and content before opening

Alternatives:

nbpreview – A terminal-based tool for viewing notebooks, offering more customization but lacking native Finder integration.
VS Code – A full-featured editor with excellent Jupyter support, but heavier than a simple Quick Look plugin.
