Usage examples?

I'm afraid I can't figure out how to use this. I have

c.NotebookApp.contents_manager_class = 'ipymd.IPymdContentsManager'

In my jupyter config. But when I open .md files, I can't compute with them. Likewise, if I start a new notebook and save it, it is still saved in ipynb format, not markdown. So clearly I'm missing either the purpose of this package and/or how to use it.

What I was looking for is a way to have jupyter create, open and close .md and .Rmd files into usable notebooks.

Well, what you have done should have worked. Is there any error message in the terminal? What version of the notebook are you using?

Does it work if you launch the notebook like this:

jupyter notebook --NotebookApp.contents_manager_class=ipymd.IPymdContentsManager
