Many thanks for all your excitement and kind words. I share that excitement. @jupytext may be Leo's most important addition since @clean.
If I understand correctly, the remaining rough edges involve creating .ipynb files and their corresponding @jupytext nodes. *Creating .ipynb files in Jupyter* We can sidestep problems creating .ipynb files as follows: - Create the x.ipynb file *in Jupyter*. - Create the @jupytext x.ipynb node in Leo, *without* saving the outline. - Populate the @jupytext x.ipynb node using refresh-from-disk. refresh-from-disk will put the entire file into the root @jupytext node. You can then create organizer nodes as you like. Saving the outline will update x.ipynb. After that, everything will just work. *Creating .ipynb files in Leo* Naturally, we want to create .ipynb files safely from within Leo. Imo, Leo should write @jupytext x.ipynb as follows. There are two cases to consider: *Case 1: x.ipynb exists* This is the easy case. Just create an *empty *@jupytext x.ipynb node. As usual, when you save the outline Leo will warn that the corresponding .ipynb file exists. You should *not* overwrite the file but instead use refresh-from-disk. *Case 2: x.ipynb does not exist* When x.ipynb does not exist, it's slightly more challenging for Leo to create a valid .ipynb file. There are two sub-cases to consider: 1. If the @jupytext tree is *completely *empty, Leo should create a valid .ipynb file. That is, the file should contain nothing but the *Jupyter prefix*. Rather than hard-coding this prefix, Leo should use the contents of *@data jupyter-prefix*. 2. Otherwise (the @jupytext tree contains text), Leo should write the @jupytext tree, possibly with a warning that creating an .ipynb file by hand isn't a good idea. *Summary* - Creating .ipynb files in Jupyter just works now. - Leo can easily create valid .ipynb files from *empty *@jupytext trees. - Leonistas should avoid creating .ipynb files by hand, that is, by saving non-empty @jupytext trees.
