Create markdown widget

[choldgraf]

I would like to create a "Tab" widget where each tab contains markdown that I've generated. I saw that there is an HTML widget, but I didn't see something similar for a Markdown widget. Is this possible in ipywidgets?

E.g., I'd like to do something like:

tab_contents = ['# Heading 1\nMy awesome page', '# Heading 2\nMy awesome second page']
children = [widgets.<MarkdownWidgetIfItExists>(content=content) for content in tab_contents]
tab = widgets.Tab()
tab.children = children
for i in range(len(children)):
    tab.set_title(i, str(i))
tab

At the moment, there is not widget to render markdown.

However, the HTMLMath widget renders Mathjax equations

from ipywidgets import HTMLMath
HTMLMath(value='$\int f(s) ds$')

something as simple as

import markdown 
from ipywidgets import HTML

html = markdown.markdown("""# Markdown""")
HTML(html) 

should work.

I'm closing this because I think @DanielAristidou 's suggestion works nicely!
