I use emacs with plugins like jupyter, flake8, magit, and jedi that 
gives autocompletion for Python, including from org-mode files and 
org-src buffers - see attached screenshot. It works nicely so far.

I have modified some emacs plugins a bit, and am currently working on 
refining things for a setup that gives nice auto-completion for Python, 
Javascript and Guile, which can be used from Emacs with a simple 
installation of a manifest, and maybe a home-configuration in the 
future.

I use a custom channel, waiting to also have related packages be refined 
enough to be submitted to guix master.

My current emacs config will almost certainly see some new commits be 
pushed to https://gitlab.com/methuselah-0/my-guix-packages in the 
following weeks.

Auto-completion, with code-signatures, jump-to-definition etc is working 
and possible, but not with a simple out-of-the-box installation from 
Guix yet. Though Im working on it :-)

Best regards,
David
