Feature Request: Toggle Python Interactive Prompts in Code Blocks

[nh916]

Description

The Python documentation features a helpful UI element that allows users to show or hide the interactive Python prompts (>>>) within code blocks. This feature is beneficial for readers who wish to copy and paste code samples without manually removing the prompts. I propose adding similar functionality to mkdocs-material to enhance the user experience for technical documentation, particularly for Python projects.

Proposed Functionality

• Add a toggle switch/button in the UI to show/hide interactive Python prompts.
• The feature could utilize custom CSS classes and JavaScript to selectively hide elements marked as prompts.
• Provide a global setting in mkdocs.yml for the site or a per-page option to enable this feature for specific code blocks.

Use Cases

• Readers can easily copy code samples without the Python shell prompts, streamlining the experience of using code examples from the documentation.
• Improves the readability of code blocks by allowing users to focus on the code itself, free from REPL-specific syntax.
• Enhances the functionality of mkdocs-material, aligning it with features provided by official Python documentation and other technical documentation tools.

Additional Context

This feature is demonstrated in the Python official documentation. Here is an example where the feature is utilized:
Decimal — Decimal fixed point and floating-point arithmetic

Thank you for considering this feature request. I believe it would be a valuable addition to mkdocs-material.
