I'd be interested in how to get a nice workflow going with livebook and a local mix project. Right now I do
iex --sname some-name --cookie some-cookie -S mix
And then in the livebook, go to the runtime settings, select "Attached Node" and enter the name and cookie.
It seems kind of inconvenient to have to do this every time, and also I don't get any automatic hot reloading of modules in the livebook when I edit files directly, so I just end up copying files into the livebook to edit them. Maybe there is a nicer way?
Wish I could just `mix livebook.start` or something to open a livebook attached to the current mix project. Or have that be the behaviour when opening the notebook file by default.
Edit: I just saw this comment from the previous discussion:

This might be what I want actually!
