What you can watch #
- How to Set up VS Code for Data Science & AI[^20]
I especially like the suggestion to check
in settings:
Jupyter: Send Selection To Interactive Window
Things I'm testing #
-
Light themes. We're supposed to work better in well-lit environments.
-
Foam - turning VSCode into an Obsidian-like knowledge base
TODO #
- Alternatives to the Front Matter CMS. I don't need most of its features and it slows down my editor too much.
- I'm missing an easy publish date/modified data setting to "now"
- Seeing all my tags inside the editor
- ASCII Art like asciiflow. More in Tag: ASCII
- Intuitive drawing (inline SVG) in markdown files like Bear.
- Nice pomodoro tracker
- Good todo management
