This simple mechanical system was one of my first coding projects when learning about physics simulations. It's basically a frictionless, gravity-free rigid pendulum that gets periodic kicks of fixed strength and direction. The phase s

If the dev cycle feels slow in julia, you can make it snappier with a tool like Revise.jl, it is quite handy. If you just need to fill a small and slow gap maybe something like numba is also a good option to stay within python. Going all th

Julia might be a better fit for this use case. That way you leverage a more developed data ecosystem, can call python when necessary and avoid writing low level code. Depends on the task of course.
