I can't understand how this will improve the work. I see the value of having python instead of sheets formulas for python developers, but developers would work on totally different toolsets (like Jupyter notebook, as you mentioned), or something like StreamIt or https://gradio.app/
This would be useless for spreadsheet users (those who use sheet formulas) as they have to learn python.
I'm not in the target audience, so I might be completely wrong about the use cases.
You're spot on in that, if you're a Python developer, you're probably using Jupyter and/or Streamlit, gradio, etc. and spreadsheet users are most comfortable with Excel-style formulas. What we've done with Neptyne is create an environment where teams of both types can be productive in a shared environment: the usual spreadsheet formulas are there, and so is a full Python/Jupyter runtime.
As with any tool that attempts to combine the best of multiple great tools, there's always the risk that it falls short of one or the other. Our aim is to make Neptyne a better alternative to both standard spreadsheets and Jupyter notebooks.
One more thing that surprised me a bit: in talking to spreadsheet power users, you see a lot of interest in using more Python. Neptyne is a great way to start off with a spreadsheet and gently incorporate more Python into your work!
The formula in python will be useful for my use case. I can simply import a package like investpy or openbb then print the output directly into a cell. This will be great, i think.
