@marcinsawicki oh. Thank you! Right now, I am starting to explore biopython. So , as I understood, for learning process I can use Jupyter notebook? Once I'll go to searching specific patterns and domains- vs code?

What's better: VS code or JupyterLab?

- spiders from your nightmares are here. 🕷 🕸 🍄
Scientists have just discovered a new Gibellula attenboroughii, which manipulates spider's action for better distribution of spores.🍄
