<div dir="ltr">Hi all<div><br></div><div>When looking at the popular scientific computing environments for Python, there seems to be a trend for building dense UIs, with lots of buttons and about three panels, much like Eclipse. IPython is far more minimalistic, wrapping most features with textual interfaces and providing a relatively linear UI.<div>
<br></div><div>Does anyone here who uses the tools with the Eclipse style interfaces, such as Wakari, Spyder and Canopy, have a few minutes to explain any benefits they find in working through those types of user interfaces?</div>
<div><br></div><div>This question isn't entirely academic. I'm casually hoping to learn something about UI design.</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you, and as ever, all the best with IPython.</div><div><br></div><div>
