Lobby: Orientation.+JM

1. Continue brainstorming Python API improvements with a focus on reproducibility (geojupyter/jupytergis#436) +YT
2. Converting project documentation from reST to MyST (Kristin was assigned this task on GitHub =D)

Not today¶

3. Consider how to implement workflows for manually & collaboratively building a vector dataset representing personal knowledge/observations (geojupyter/jupytergis#395)

Share out¶

Think about: What exciting things did you accomplish? What loose ends remain? Big questions? Big ideas?

• Implemented remove layer method: geojupyter/jupytergis#478
• A dev container approach to avoid issues with WSL / Windows / OSX issues - but how does this interact with the JupyterLab workflow??
  • script-library/docs/jupyterlab.md
• Thinking about Python API and reproducibility.
  • What about “recording” a manifest of actions taken in the GUI and generating Python code? Suggested by Nick :) How will this work? :thinking_face:
• Converted troubleshooting.rst to .md! PR here
  • Will reviewers assign themselves to PRs or should PR-makers assign them before posting the PR?
• We should simplify the documentation building setup to optionally build jupyterlite
  • Could we push jupyterlite builds to an artifact registry to speed up CI/CD?
• Martin walked Jon through setting up a JupyterGIS Dev Environment and everything worked first try! 🎊
• Still a few more files to convert to MyST, but the process is straightforward with rst2myst
  • Kristin will (try) to convert one more doc from .rst to .md before next hackathon
• I’ve put QuantStack’s internal git guidelines in public here git/git_workflow.md for those interested 🙌
