I'm not saying that I don't understand the appeal; it's just that interactive development is usually done in Jupyter Notebooks due to the shortcomings of various editors not able to do code evaluation.

I'm dreaming about something like Emacs Slime[0] for other languages (that aren't Common Lisp) where you can write code, evaluate it in the editor, switch to the REPL and test it, recompile while debugging.... etc. [1]

And the most similar tool of the other languages... is basically jupyter-notebook. There is no such tool for interactive development except with the bare-bone REPL in the shell.
