To be frank, I don't see any additional features of the app over VSCode, other than it starts up faster, which does not matter much as VSCode starts up faster than the import cell of any notebooks I have. Also, one big reason I use VSCode for notebook is to get the Python LSP.

Good luck to you though, I do think the demographics of scientists who find VSCode confusing is actually sizeable.

But if you aren't using VSCode (we exist) this looks quite useful. That said, I just open my jupyter sessions in firefox and am pretty happy with that...

Mental separation, I think. It's nice to take a break from the code editor and have a focused app for quick analysis, like a calculator.

I have VSCode open 24/7 so even that feature doesn't help me.

Lots of people use both VSCode and native Jupyter notebooks that would love this app as it develops.
