Sniprun is a code runner plugin for neovim written in Lua and Rust. It aims to provide stupidly fast partial code testing for interpreted and compiled languages . Sniprun blurs the line between standard save/run workflow, jupyter-like notebook, and REPL/interpreters.

Python, Julia, Lua, JavaScript & Typescript (via deno), Clojure, R, Mathematica, Sage, coming soon for many other interpreted (and compiled) languages. With REPL-like behavior ,you can run code dependent on previously executed code, just like in a REPL, from within your favorite editor.
Sniprun is a way to quickly run small snippets of code, on the fly, and iterate very quickly and conveniently. To learn a language, to quickly experiment with new features (not yet embedded in classes or a whole project etc...), or to develop simple code pipelines (like a machine learning exercise) that fit in a unique file, sniprun is probably the best plugin out there.
As a matter of proof, Sniprun :

It's been quite a journey already! For history fans, see the full changelog.
Sniprun has been made contributor-friendly (see CONTRIBUTING.md), so it's relatively easy to create / fix interpreters for any language. But any (constructive) issue, discussion, or doc Pull Request is a welcome form of contribution !
