How to Grow Software Architecture out of Jupyter Notebooks
So I'm software developer for 10 years that started using Jupyter Notebooks the last year.  I absolutely love that the REPL that ipython gives you.  Do a query that takes really long, store it in some variable, spend the next hour or two working on that dataset in memory, changing code, iterating, all the while never having to re-execute that query or load data because it's just a REPL.<p>How can one get the same type of developer experience in Python without using Jupyter notebooks? What I'm talking about, to people that maybe do traditional development in lets say Java or C++ is, imagine running your code in a debugger, setting a breakpoint, when it hits that breakpoint, you see "ah here's the problem", you fix the code, and have it re-execute all the while not having stopped your program at all. No re-compiling, and then having to re-execute from the beginning.  It's like once you've done things the Juypter way, how can you possibly want to back to writing code in a traditional sense, it's just too slow of a process.<p>How do you get that same experience without using Jupyter? I tried the VSCode plugin [1] that tries to make things the same as a Juptyer Notebook, but it's no where near as smooth an experience and feels clunky.<p>[1] <a href="https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=donjayamanne.jupyter" rel="nofollow">https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=donjayam...</a>
