- Exploring dataframes by printing them to the terminal is not ideal (lots of hidden output)
- Using Jupyter is also not ideal as it’s a whole thing of its own and you’re still printing to the console in the same way at the end of the day
- Visidata is awesome for quickly viewing everything very clearly
- And filtering sorting very quickly
- And doing everything with minimal keystrokes
- I created a keymap to send dataframes to visidata while the python debugger is paused where a dataframe is in scope
- So much nicer
