Is dbx suitable for notebook-oriented development?

[bjtho08]

So, in my department, we use exclusively databricks for our data analysis needs and we have an entire product built around running multi-task databricks jobs with several dbutils.notebook.run()calls and a lot of dbutils.widgets in each task to pass around parameters between the notebooks.

Now, I much prefer to code in my local IDE and we do have a repo for the project, but one of the annoyances is that the dbutils.*()calls and the notebook-specific functions (such as display()) will be highlighted as undefined by my IDE.
My question is, would it make sense to use dbx or would it just be more hassle without solving my issues?
