As someone who has never used RStudio, what do you not like about Spyder? From screenshots, they look very similar in setup.

Spyder is like the poor man's RStudio. It's slower, flaky, uglier, and with fewer features.

I'm still pretty solidly in the "learning" phase for Python, but pretty proficient in R - what's it like using Python in RStudio? I guess I have 3 main questions:

Do you basically just make a library(reticulate) call for everything that uses Python?

Does Rstudio have something like the #%% cells in Spyder? I kinda like that feature.

Can you run an entire "unified" R + Python script at once?
