I would be happy to include it in a blog, but I don’t have one of my own so somebody else would have to offer to let me post it on theirs.

I think I might go back and edit the post to emphasize VS code more–this has changed since earlier in the year. I could explain my workflow with Revise a bit more, which I never got around to doing, but somebody else recently posted essentially my exact workflow (with a few more points that I’m going to steal) here: [https://discourse.julialang.org/t/exploratory-research-project-workflow/53030/8](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/exploratory-research-project-workflow/53030/8). I think this is all relevant to ML which uses scripts extensively IIUC.

There’s also [DaemonMode.jl](https://github.com/dmolina/DaemonMode.jl) now which may help.
