I feel that Rust could really profit from an interactive REPL like notebook like Julias Pluto. It makes visualisations during development and their integration with documentation so seamless.

You can do this using the evcxr kernel for Jupyter: https://github.com/evcxr/evcxr/blob/1a2d6c40c467267801c7382e...

Sadly jupyter is a very different experience to Pluto. The latter is similar to ObservableHQ (it even reuses part of the runtime afaik).

So you don't have to manually evaluate cells, but they are evaluated based on the computations dataflow graph.

Additionally it allows for very interactive visualisations and data input.
