code-cells.el VS nvim-treesitter-context

code-cells: Utilities to work with “lightweight notebooks”, that is, source code which is split into cells by special %% comments. Also allows you to transparently edit Jupyter notebook (ipynb) files.

Emacs, Sublime Text 3 and Atom Pulsar can all do this with arbitrary Jupyter kernels with the emacs-jupyter/code-cells, helium and hydrogen packages, respectively.

I've been using code-cells together with emacs-jupyter, the combination of the two lets you work pretty much identically as you would in Atom with Hydrogen, Sublime with Helium, or VSCode with the Jupyter Python extension; you just delimit code cells with #%% and execute in a separate Jupyter REPL buffer. It does require some getting used to the key bindings though (or some tweaking to make it more similar to what you're used to).

I use a similar setup in Emacs with code-cells.el [1]. VSCode had a tendency to choke rendering large interactive graphs in-line, so if I was needing to view in a separate process anyways a little elisp turns "write last IPython output to a tempfile, open, move to workspace N" into a keybind.

I use the simple but very convenient code-cells package to run python cells. E.g. with the Spyder IDE, the cell where the cursor is currently in has a different background color, and I'd love to have that in emacs. Would you have any idea on how to do that?

For scripts with cells there are a couple of packages. Mine is this: https://github.com/astoff/code-cells.el

Very cool! Sort of reminds me of treesitter-context. Any chance for compatibility? An example could be you either would disable context when something is pinned or somehow displace it other, depending on which is "on top" could be neat.

It's for context and navigation, not completions. So it wouldn't replace nvim-cmp. It probably doesn't replace anything you already have unless you are already using a winbar. It combines features of treesitter-context, symbols-outline, and a file navigator but in a different presentation.

Not quite the same thing, but arguably a better alternative : https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter-context

For 2: https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter-context

I really like nvim-treesitter-context as an alternative for 1.

nvim-treesitter-context implements "sticky scroll" where, depending on where your cursor is placed, the top lines of your window will be replaced by the otherwise offscreen lines that declare what function you're in (e.g function test(...), the line that begins the current class (e.g. public class Student implements Person {), the variable name of the current table (e.g. local planets = {), etc.

Very different in my eyes, but I love nvim-treesitter-context. Definitely another tool in helping the brain parse code -- I think of it as helping with long range context, whereas blockman helps me focus on local context and makes scoping relationships more subconciously available.

I have seen https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter-context is recommended, and it works similar. But the way the context info are displayed in AstroNvim is much nicer
