What tools do you use?
Hi! I'm interested in becoming a data scientist, I saw that there's SQL tools like Workbench and DBeaver, and Spyder and Jupyter for Python, but what tools do you usually use? Any recommendations?

I program in R and use Rstudio as an IDE when coding on my laptop. Else, I use the NVIM-R plugin for the VI editor when I code on the HPC. For R, apart from these two, you don't need anything else.
I also recommend the GitHub desktop client for interacting with GitHub.com.
Cool! Thanks! I don't see many people in data science working just with R, so it's good to see your case :)
I know it's an old thread, but I want there to be more DS stuff in the Lemmy.
Python is arguably the defacto standard. Jupyter gets used a lot (but shouldn't be used to frequently IMO).
I haven't used R but it seems to be a distant second to Python. That being said, it really depends on the industry!
Generally my setup is VSCode and Anaconda developing on remote VMs.
