emacs-ipython-notebook and SCIMAX

I was wondering what is best from these two enablers of interactive python or iPython. Either using emacs-ipython-notebook or SCIMAX. I understand that both accomplish quite the same thing, but can't decide which one to use and have no time to start checking. So if someone has checked already, much appreciated. Thanks.

Scimax is a complete emacs distro. Meaning a complete Emacs environment, a complete setup. If that is what you are after, it is well maintained by jkitchin in: https://github.com/jkitchin/scimax

EIN (Emacs ipython Notebook) maintained here, Is a notebook solution. little configuration is required. It is a package like any Emacs package.

org-babel Worth mentioning too, look for ob-python or ob-ipython, if you are using org it is a natural way to include code the literate way. It is what I ended up using . Have a look at:

And also at:
