We already have (at least) one: Differential Equations and SciML.

... plus Pluto, language-wide automatic differentiation, multiple dispatch, lispy macros...

Pluto is that app for me coupled with a simple portable install.

Installing on windows (workday I'm consigned to flames of woe) is simply a matter of downloading portable install .zip file, a simple startup .bat script[0], 'add Pluto', 'import Pluto' and finally 'Pluto.run()'

I now have an Observable-like[1]notebook with all the Julialang goodness without running an installer

[0] my julia.bat looks like:

  @echo off
  @REM see https://docs.julialang.org/en/v1/manual/environment-variables/
  @REM %%1 is the project directory
  set JULIA_PROJECT=%1
  set JULIA_DEPOT_PATH=%~dp0JULIA_DEPOT
  set JULIA_BINDIR=%~dp0julia-1.7.0\bin
  set PATH=%JULIA_BINDIR%;%PATH%
  %JULIA_BINDIR%\julia
