Google Colab vs. JetBrains DataSpell vs. MicroPython vs. QuantRocket Comparison Chart

Switch between command and editor modes with a single keystroke. Navigate over cells with arrow keys. Use all of the standard Jupyter shortcuts. Enjoy fully interactive outputs – right under the cell. When editing code cells, enjoy smart code completion, on-the-fly error checking and quick-fixes, easy navigation, and much more. Work with local Jupyter notebooks or connect easily to remote Jupyter, JupyterHub, or JupyterLab servers right from the IDE. Run Python scripts or arbitrary expressions interactively in a Python Console. See the outputs and the state of variables in real-time. Split Python scripts into code cells with the #%% separator and run them individually as you would in a Jupyter notebook. Browse DataFrames and visualizations right in place via interactive controls. All popular Python scientific libraries are supported, including Plotly, Bokeh, Altair, ipywidgets, and others.

QuantRocket is a Python-based platform for researching, backtesting, and trading quantitative strategies. It provides a JupyterLab environment, offers a suite of data integrations, and supports multiple backtesters: Zipline, the open-source backtester that originally powered Quantopian; Alphalens, an alpha factor analysis library; Moonshot, a vectorized backtester based on pandas; and MoonshotML, a walk-forward machine learning backtester. Built on Docker, QuantRocket can be deployed locally or to the cloud and has an open architecture that is flexible and extensible.
