I don't know of a smooth way to do this from a jupyter cell 🤔 . Taking Jupyter out of the equation, you can use a flow like this from Python: import pandas as pd
from visidata import vd
df = ...
vd.view_pandas(df) ...but the few times I've tried it from jupyter it hasn't worked well because visidata wants raw terminal access and jupyter is doing its own thing. One workaround I've only used for example purposes is passing data into a running vd session. I'm assuming that's probably too janky to be a true solution, but maybe still useful in case it triggers any more productive impulses from folks like you who know your way around notebooks. |

Hi, maybe you know me, because I am the old fan of Visidata from almost day zero.
The question is self explanatory.
I am getting sick of other types of showing dataframes and tabular data in Terminal with python.
Is it possible to open Visidata as python function and show the dataframe as visidata?
How?
For example Within jupyter cell, having a function, that when we call it, interactive or passive visidata opens up!
