Hey,

I recently saw the presentation on Pluto and really like the concept. I am actually so convinced of it that I was thinking about writing some lecture notes in it, so that students can directly experiment around. I do like to include further readings and appropriate citations in these notes though and could so far not find any way of doing this in Pluto.

Is there any way to add citation in Pluto? This would preferably work with Biblatex

Not sure if this fits your bill, but I just added support for DOIs to [ShortCodes.jl](https://github.com/hellemo/ShortCodes.jl) this morning, where the reference is looked up at [https://opencitations.net/](https://opencitations.net/) automatically.

```julia
using ShortCodes
DOI("10.1137/141000671")

```

It should look something like this in Pluto:

Thanks, glad to hear that someone finds it cool or useful 🙂

It was originally inspired by the [Hugo shortcodes](https://gohugo.io/content-management/shortcodes/), especially for youtube and twitter, and I kept adding stuff that I could use for git-friendly presentations or notebooks with some extra spice in Pluto.

Or there further methods like with bibtex. If I have a publication, how to get to the DOI code…
