When NOT to use ploomber
Constraint-first guidance from category fit and live maintenance signals - not marketing copy.
- Avoid Ploomber if your development process does not involve iterative testing or if direct integration with Jupyter notebooks is unnecessary.
- Do not use Ploomber if you prefer a non-IDE environment and you do not need Python's ecosystem for building data pipelines, as it heavily integrates with IDEs like PyCharm and VSCode.
