I had to fix a few things to get this to run without error on Jupyter Notebook on Windows 10. Not sure exactly why the final output does not look exactly like the the website version. The CSS file is probably not being picked up correctly.

Don't have privileges to do pull request on this repo yet, so I cannot merge into main branch.
