Hello,
I came here from the Julia debugging is extremely slow thread. I wanted to give Flexible Julia a try, and I must say I am struggling with the basics. I apologize if this is not the right place to ask, but I couldn’t find a simple tutorial. I installed IntelliJ, in case that matters (no experience with any of the Jetbrains tools, and it seemed to me that madppiper’s screenshots were made with IntelliJ).
My workflow in VSCode is that I typically open a directory in VSCode, immediately launch a Julia instance (Alt+J Alt+O), and then I either run the whole file with the “run arrow” or by typing include("myfile.jl"), or (more often) execute lines or cells one at a time.
In VSCode, all these actions take place in the same Julia instance, untill I use Alt+J Alt+R to restart it. This greatly helps with the TTFX problem. But in Flexible Julia, I struggle to understand “where I am” in terms of Julia instances. It seems the “run arrow” and “debug” launch instances that are not the same as the REPL one. This makes me think that I am probably not correctly understanding the basic workflow - is there a tutorial for “real” beginners with both IntelliJ and Flexible Julia?
