Emacs Advent Calendar 9: devdocs, code-cells, dREPL, etc.
A clarification - I don't consider Jinx a fork of Jit-spell, otherwise I would have made this clear in the package README and the package header. There is no code shared between the two packages and the overall approach differs in the essential points (Enchant vs external process, Checking only the visible region, ...). It is true that I started Jinx because of our discussion https://github.com/astoff/jit-spell/issues/9, but this does not make Jinx a fork. Jinx is technically closer to spell-fu, which uses a similar technique, where only the visible region in the window is checked.

Tips and best practices for REPL-oriented python development?
I've never used elpy, so I can't compare for you, but I feel like it is pretty easy to get a comfortable environment with python-mode. Install a python language server and use eglot or lsp-mode. I believe that python-mode is one of the modes that will be getting tree sitter support in emacs 29, which should add some additional enhancements. The only additional python specific package that I use is comint-mime, since I mostly do data/visualization work.

R and Python Polymode Data Science
https://github.com/astoff/comint-mime, python mode, and ipython work well for me. Some combination of markdown mode, polymode, quarto, and jupytext can probably get you pretty far with a literate programming style. There’s also the https://github.com/nnicandro/emacs-jupyter package that might be worth checking out.

A mouse-driven Emacs?
Finally, as a slight tangent, the comint-mime package will definitely improve the M-x shell experience: https://github.com/astoff/comint-mime.

Suggestions on remote work with LSP? How do you do it?
Yes, it will soon, namely as of Emacs 28: https://github.com/astoff/comint-mime

Is it possible to speed up the latex fragments generation in org files?
It would be cool to think a bit about what other uses these fancy Org rendering utilities can have, such as this. The async stuff would probably get in the way if you want to get a propertized/overlayed buffer out of a string. But usually there are several things about the Org API that are inconvenient as a library (such as not autoloading the externally useful functions).

Very ameteurish Python coder, I need several features but don't need a full-fledged IDE. Can I find these as packages elsewhere?
Inline images: interestingly, I was just working on this. It needs Emacs 28, but you can take a look here: https://github.com/astoff/comint-mime
