EDA libraries for Scala and Spark?

What about https://github.com/alexarchambault/plotly-scala and https://almond.sh/
Is there any editor or IDE that supports Ammonite with inline dependencies?

I use Almond in JupyterLab, which has pretty solid code completion. In IntelliJ, you can create a scratch sc file and run lines of it in the Scala REPL. That's really convenient for code completion and I normally will use that when I'm testing something from a specific project.
Recommended option for "Java with different syntax"?

The UI part. There's only the scala REPL. I think the closest is a scala kernel for Jupyter notebooks, check this out: https://almond.sh/
An SQL Solution for Jupyter
6 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 9 Feb 2021

We have used https://almond.sh/ to create a Spark SQL interpreter using Jupyter Notebooks - plus a whole lot more which you can see here: https://arc.tripl.ai/tutorial
After seeing many companies writing ETL using code we decided it was too hard to manage at scale so provided this abstraction layer - which is heavily centered around expressing business logic in SQL - to standardise development (JupyterLab) and allow rapid deployments.
