Hello,

I am looking for a similar Jupyter Notebook’s [python-markdown](https://github.com/ipython-contrib/jupyter_contrib_nbextensions/tree/master/src/jupyter_contrib_nbextensions/nbextensions/python-markdown) extension. JupyterLab does not support Jupyter Notebook’s extensions and plugins.

I use heavily Python Markdown.

Thank you for your attention!

Gustavo
