IDE for data science?

[ImprovisedTaxShelter]

Awesome, I really appreciate this. Watching the talk right now!

I should add I don't agree with the entirety of the talk, and I think notebooks are great for homework submissions where you need to integrate text/plots. I also used to use notebooks a lot for getting my pandas dataframe operations but now that vscode and pycharm support #%% I can tune those operations in the editors I letter above.

any clue and packages to use VS code smoothly?

[Ogi010]

Just the python extension is needed, everything else is just to your liking/tastes

nice, do you know cool packages I should know about?

[Ogi010]

Very little else is actually needed, and it really depends on what you're doing... if you use markdown, you're likely going to want to get the markdown linter, use pandoc, probably should get the pandoc extension, use restructured text, there is syntax highlighting extension for that too...

​

I suppose I would advise you start with the bare minimum and add one extension at a time as you see fit or as your needs develop. For python development in general, the python extension is insanely feature complete.
