No—the package is abandoned (last release 2021-05-17, no commits for 1915 days) with no maintenance signal, an unclear license, and unknown compatibility with current Streamlit versions. Only install if you are maintaining a legacy Streamlit app that already uses it and you have verified the component still works with your current environment.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Python >=3.6; compatibility with current Streamlit versions is unknown given the package has not been maintained since 2021-05-17.
- Installation is straightforward with a single dependency on streamlit, but the package has been abandoned since May 2021 with no maintenance for 1915 days, so expect no updates for bugs or compatibility issues.

What it is and what it does
streamlit-embedcode is a Streamlit component that wraps code-sharing services (GitHub gist, GitLab snippets, Pastebin, CodePen, Ideone, and TagMyCode) into embeddable iframe components for display within Streamlit apps. It lets you reference external code snippets by URL and render them inline, with optional control over iframe height, width, and scrolling behavior.
The package depends only on streamlit and installs with low friction. However, it has been abandoned since 2021-05-17 and receives no maintenance, so its compatibility with modern Streamlit versions and the stability of the external services' embed APIs are both unknown.
Use it for
- Display GitHub gist snippets in a Streamlit documentation or tutorial app without copying code into the app itself
- Embed CodePen projects or Pastebin pastes directly in a Streamlit dashboard for reference or demonstration
- Create a code-sharing portal in Streamlit that pulls snippets from multiple external services via URL
- Show GitLab snippets or Ideone solutions in a Streamlit learning or code-review interface
