I'm trying to work entirely inside the repl. Its not bad but for large stuff the lack of go to definition hurts, and there isn't an easy way to copy commands that worked into my module. I'll try vscode next. That is what I use for c++/c. Is there anything else I should try?


I use VSCode+repl which works well for me (although the language server for Julia isn't as good as a C/C++ one). The one other workflow to look at is Pluto notebooks. They're similar to jupyter notebooks, but they track cell dependencies and automatically dependent cells, to guarantee that you maintain consistent state.


I worked in pluto for a bit. I should give that another shot. If there is an easy way that someone simply runs the script, and it doesn't try to fire off plots, that would be the ultimate in self documenting code.


Ideally Julia would have a WASM backend, but that is one that would require someone to put a bunch of time into it.
