Python in Visual Studio Code

This is pretty much why I haven't moved fully to VSCode as well. I gave it a try but I realized that my whole workspace is in terminal. Also, like you said the tools I have compliment to one another very well making it very flexible. The only thing I do miss when working in terminal is that whenever I'm working in markdown I wish it had dead simple preview like that in VSCode.

I do all my document-making in emacs with org-mode and evil (vim-mode). Seriously, it's amazing. When you are done, you are one command away from having it in markdown/pdf/latex/html/word or any other format you can imagine.

I'd love if I could have the same power for managing my todos, tasks, projects, taking notes, README writing, overall agenda with vim, but I can't, so I find it's easily worth it just to use emacs and org.

Here is an example of what you are able to do with emacs and org: https://imgur.com/a/3rTNVYE

And if you need it in markdown, you just manually export it, or set up a hook that does it for you every time the document changes.

And no, the result of the code-blocks in the screenshot is not something I manually inserted into the notes. Org runs the code and inserts the result for me automatically.

Okay you convinced me with that org-mode. I've already invested huge time learning vim and hopefully it translates well in evil.

Edit: Ah, I see emacs has it's own terminal which is why it was able to support charts and graphs.
