-## Option 4: Add a formatter to the marimo repo
-
-The recommended way to render rich displays of objects in marimo is to
-implement `_display_` if possible, otherwise either the IPython `_repr_*_()_`
-protocol or marimo's `_mime_()` protocol. If you are a a user of a library that
-does not render properly in marimo, consider asking the library maintainers to
-implement one of these protocols.
-
-If it is not possible to implement a renderer protocol on the type
-you want displayed, we will consider contributions to add formatters to the
-marimo codebase. [Look at our codebase for
-examples](https://github.com/marimo-team/marimo/tree/main/marimo/_output/formatters),
-then open a pull request.
