My biggest problem with Jupyter is hidden state. You have no idea what order the cells executed in and how many times to get to the current state. Pluto.jl and Marimo solve that by using reactivity to make state transparent. WYSIWYG.

I have also been thoroughly impressed how Marimo has engaged with AI agents. marimo-pair is fantastic.

Well, I've enjoyed it. It's easier to set up an run from a virtual environment than Jupyter notebooks. That was a big problem I had for years.
