I'm using python/notebooks. I'm pretty new to this. There's little auto-complete and the online docs are terse with few or no examples. People say python is easy, but it seems like there's many packages/ways to do the same thing, which makes learning confusing. It's especially confusing trying to optimize/pretty up code. I've hit plenty of gotchas.

Choosing between libraries is a common, not-totally-solved problem. Some good indicators that one library is better than another: - more recently updated - more total commits - more Github stars - more closed issues - fewer stale issues (issues opened a long time ago, but not fixed) I don't know much about Notebooks. This may not help at all, but people seem absolutely crazy about PyCharm: https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/ https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/
