Compare JetBrains DataSpell vs. JetBrains Fleet vs. Visual Studio Code

Easily switch between command and editor modes using just one keystroke while navigating through cells with arrow keys. Take advantage of all standard Jupyter shortcuts for a smoother experience. Experience fully interactive outputs positioned directly beneath the cell for enhanced visibility. When working within code cells, benefit from intelligent code suggestions, real-time error detection, quick-fix options, streamlined navigation, and many additional features. You can operate with local Jupyter notebooks or effortlessly connect to remote Jupyter, JupyterHub, or JupyterLab servers directly within the IDE. Execute Python scripts or any expressions interactively in a Python Console, observing outputs and variable states as they happen. Split your Python scripts into code cells using the #%% separator, allowing you to execute them one at a time like in a Jupyter notebook. Additionally, explore DataFrames and visual representations in situ through interactive controls, all while enjoying support for a wide range of popular Python scientific libraries, including Plotly, Bokeh, Altair, ipywidgets, and many others, for a comprehensive data analysis experience. This integration allows for a more efficient workflow and enhances productivity while coding.

Developed entirely from the ground up, JetBrains Fleet draws on two decades of experience in creating integrated development environments (IDEs). It utilizes the robust IntelliJ code-processing engine, featuring a distributed architecture and a fresh user interface designed for modern developers. Our aim with Fleet was to create a swift and efficient text editor that allows for quick code browsing and editing. It launches almost instantaneously, enabling you to start your work without delay, and has the capability to seamlessly evolve into a full-fledged IDE, with the IntelliJ engine operating independently from the editing interface. Fleet encompasses all the beloved features of IntelliJ-based IDEs, such as code completion tailored to your project context, easy navigation to definitions and usages, real-time code quality assessments, and convenient quick-fixes. The architecture of Fleet is thoughtfully designed to accommodate various configurations and workflows, allowing it to run locally on your machine or to offload some processes to the cloud, showcasing its versatility and adaptability for different development needs. This flexibility ensures that developers can choose the setup that best fits their workflow requirements.

VSCode: A revolutionary approach to code editing. It's completely free, open-source, and compatible with all platforms. Experience more than just basic syntax highlighting and autocomplete; with IntelliSense, you gain intelligent suggestions that are based on the types of variables, definitions of functions, and imported modules. You can also debug your code directly within the editor, allowing you to launch or connect to your active applications while utilizing breakpoints, call stacks, and an interactive console for deeper insights. Collaborating with Git and other source control management (SCM) systems is simpler than ever; you can review differences, stage files, and commit changes right from within the editor itself. Easily push and pull changes from any hosted SCM service without hassle. Looking for additional capabilities? You can enhance your experience by installing extensions that introduce new languages, themes, debuggers, and connections to various services. These extensions operate in their own processes, ensuring they won't hinder your editor's performance. Discover the endless possibilities with extensions. Furthermore, with Microsoft Azure, you can efficiently deploy and host a variety of sites built with React, Angular, Vue, Node, Python, and more, while also being able to store and query both relational and document-based data, and scale effortlessly using serverless computing solutions. This powerful integration streamlines your development workflow and enhances productivity.
