Title: Google Colab .ipynb notebooks not rendering correctly on GitHub, affecting github documentations to code referred on wensite #3027

Description

@JAIS0N

Problem

Some of the Jupyter notebooks (.ipynb) in the documentation appear to have rendering issues when viewed directly on GitHub. The notebooks seem to be exported from Google Colab, and certain notebook metadata/output structures can cause GitHub's notebook renderer to fail or display content incorrectly.

This impacts the readability of the documentation because users browsing the repository cannot reliably view the notebook contents directly on GitHub.

Expected Behavior

The notebooks should render correctly when viewed in the GitHub repository without requiring users to download and open them locally or in Colab.

Possible Cause

The notebooks may contain Google Colab-specific metadata, outputs, or notebook structures that are not fully compatible with GitHub's notebook rendering engine.

Suggested Fixes

Potential approaches include:

Cleaning Colab-specific metadata before committing notebooks.
Re-saving notebooks using Jupyter Notebook/JupyterLab.
Using tools such as nbstripout or jupyter nbconvert during documentation generation.
Validating notebook rendering on GitHub as part of the documentation workflow.
Offer to Help

I would be happy to investigate the root cause and submit a pull request with a fix if the maintainers are open to contributions. I can review the affected notebooks, identify the rendering incompatibilities, and implement a solution that preserves both GitHub and Colab usability.

Thank you for maintaining Langfuse!
