Almost. I don't actually ever navigate to the REPL process itself. I have my source files open in my editor, and when I want to evaluate something, I select the expression to evaluate and press my shortcut to evaluate it. Then my editor shows the results of the evaluation either inline or in a separate window next to the call.

So when I later call the function I created for example, it'll use the new evaluated code instead of the old. If I'm happy, I save the file, everything reloads from there while keeping the same state.
