+**************************
+Embedding Alignoth Outputs
+**************************
+
+Alignoth produces fully self-contained HTML files that can be easily embedded into other reports and workflows.
+This allows users to integrate alignment visualizations directly into existing analysis pipelines, documentation,
+or automated reporting systems such as Snakemake or Datavzrd.
+
+Below we demonstrate how to embed Alignoth visualizations within a Snakemake report.  
+Additional examples for Datavzrd and other tools will be added in future updates.
+
+Embedding in Snakemake
+======================
+
+Snakemake can generate detailed, self-contained HTML reports that include any desired output file produced by the workflow.  
+By wrapping an Alignoth HTML output in the ``report()`` function, it will be automatically integrated into the resulting Snakemake report.
+
+Example rule
+------------
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    rule alignoth:
+        input:
+            bam="results/mapped/{sample}.bam",
+            bam_index="results/mapped/{sample}.bam.bai",
+            ref="results/ref.fasta"
+        output:
+            report("results/alignoth/{sample}/pileup.html")
+        log:
+            "logs/alignoth/{sample}.log"
+        conda:
+            "envs/alignoth.yaml"
+        shell:
+            """
+            alignoth -b {input.bam} -r {input.ref} -g chr1:1-1000 --html > {output} 2> {log}
+            """
+
+The corresponding Conda environment definition:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+    name: alignoth
+    channels:
+      - conda-forge
+      - bioconda
+    dependencies:
+      - alignoth=0.16.4
+
+After your regular workflow execution the snakemake report can be generated via the following command:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    snakemake --report report.zip
+
+The resulting report will contain the interactive Alignoth plot.
