Significant changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Nbconvert 6.0 is a major release of nbconvert which includes many significant changes.

- Python 2 support was dropped. Currently Python 3.6-3.8 is supported and tested by nbconvert. However, nbconvert 6.0 provides limited support for Python 3.6. nbconvert 6.1 will drop support for Python 3.6. Limited support means we will test and run CI on Python 3.6.12 or higher. Issues that are found only affecting Python 3.6 are not guaranteed to be fixed. We recommend all users of nbconvert use Python 3.7 and higher.

- Unlike previous versions, nbconvert 6.0 relies on the `nbclient <https://github.com/jupyter/nbclient/>`__ package for the execute preprocessor, which allows for asynchronous kernel requests.

- Nbconvert 6.0 includes a new "webpdf" exporter, which renders notebooks in pdf format through a headless web browser, so that complex outputs such as HTML tables, or even widgets are rendered in the same way as with the HTML exporter and a web browser.

The ``--to slides`` exporter is still supported for convenience.

- Inkscape 1.0 is now supported, which had some breaking changes that prevented 5.x versions of nbconvert from converting documents on some systems that updated.
