Can you edit normal .py scripts interactively in jupyterlab?

I'm thinking similar to atom with the hydrogen plugin?

When doing data science in Python I tend to get stuck in a "first create it in jupyter notebook, then re-create it in an actual python script so we can go into production". Using Atom i've been able to just create the code directly in a python script, but still have the great interactive features of jupyter.

I was really hoping that jupyterlab would be similar, but as far as i can tell, you only get the interactive features in the python notebooks and not in python scripts?

You might like using the Spyder IDE for this. You can use it to edit and execute jupyter notebooks and python scripts: https://docs.spyder-ide.org/current/plugins/notebook.html
