nbconvert is the Jupyter project's tool for converting .ipynb notebooks into static formats such as HTML, LaTeX, PDF, Reveal.js slides, Markdown, reStructuredText, and executable scripts. It works both as a command-line tool (`jupyter nbconvert`) and as a Python library, using Jinja templates for customizable output.

Use cases

• convert a jupyter notebook to html
• export ipynb to pdf
• turn notebooks into reveal.js slides
• convert notebook to markdown for a blog
• extract executable python script from a notebook
• batch convert notebooks from the command line
• customize notebook export with jinja templates

When to choose

• you need to publish or share Jupyter notebooks in static formats like HTML, PDF, or slides
• you want programmatic or CLI-based notebook conversion with customizable templates
• you are building tooling on top of the Jupyter ecosystem that reads or transforms notebooks

When to avoid

• you need to run or edit notebooks interactively rather than convert them (use Jupyter itself)
• you need conversion of non-notebook documents
• you require formats nbconvert does not support without external tools like pandoc or LaTeX
