a conda environment file with the basic python libraries and some extras :
- numpy / pandas / scikit-learn / seaborn / statsmodels / plotly / jupyterlab classic Data Science stack
- keras and lightgbm for prediction
- pyspark and h2o for distributed processing
- pandas-profiling for generating HTML reports on pandas dataframes
- missingno for missing data analysis
- invoke as a replacement to Makefile for managing project tasks
- nbdime for diffing and merging notebooks
