The reloading mechanism in the blog exercises the module reloader (https://docs.marimo.io/guides/editor_features/module_autorel...), to reload other files (not the notebook file), which is different from the watch flag.

The current version of the extension embeds the marimo user interface in PyCharm. We may in the near future have a more native-feeling embedding, but that's a little tbd.

Glad to hear you're enjoying marimo, and thanks for sharing the anecdote. I'll gladly accept the "thank you", but it's worth mentioning this extension was developed end-to-end by Kiran :)
