Having tried Jupyter, I was disappointed. It takes too many resources, even for a few simple things, and requires a browser which is extra resources (and probably less efficient than a native binary application). At some point, not having done much in one session, I saw RAM usage quickly rise high f…

Since you are mentioning both Jupyter and an IDE in your post it’s not completely clear to me what kind of tool you are looking for. As you might know, Jupyter is a tool to work with interactive computational notebooks, which is great for exploratory/interactive analysis and presentation of results,…

It is not clear what you want from this. For what it’s worth I have found jupyterlab very responsive, despite being on a browser. If you want something so simple, it’s not clear why Sublime Text 3 with a terminal would be so unpleasant. If you are looking for a notebook, trye qtconsole , which is a …

Has anybody made a package that loads a Jupyter notebook with a Blink.jl desktop electron window? If I could launch Jupyter from the REPL with Blink.jl, then I might actually use Jupyter.

I don’t know about Blink.jl, but this nteract tool OP mentioned seems to be a desktop app interface to Jupyter notebooks as far as I understand, if that is what you are after.

Yes, a Jupyter-like replacement is what I meant, when I used many words earlier, though with those things to be considered which I mentioned (good fast terminal integration, quick list of variables in use, light on resources, etc.). @pdeffebach , I never said it wasn’t responsive :wink: It was takin…

I add, I noticed others speak of Jupyter as though it’s an IDE.

JupyterLab really is an IDE. There is a text editor, etc and both terminal and console modes on top of the notebook interface. Jupyter refers to a range of options.

Maybe I should’ve made my first post shorter and clearer. And you seem correct about Jupyter being a range of options. That was poor word choice on my part.

[image] Usor: I add, I noticed others speak of Jupyter as though it’s an IDE. Maybe it can be called an IDE, of course it depends on what you mean by an IDE :slight_smile: . I just meant that I don’t think it is the ideal tool to develop packages or navigate large code bases, and I don’t thin…

[image] Usor: So, if you consider my needs (light on resources, fast, easy setup preferrably offline, preferrably a native application, Jupyter-like, reasonably simple or to-the-point, suitable for power users, with a Vim style of control, and I don’t need pretty non-terminal-like printing for c…

Have you checked out this option: Use LanguageServer.jl on vim 8.1 with vim-lsp plugin? I don’t have any experience I just remembered that something for Vim exists.
