I'll definitely be watching out for more built-in streaming support. Being able to throw the standard types directly over the wire and trust that the library will handle optimally utilizing the connection would make this the RPC library that I've been looking for all year.

My biggest complaint with library management tools, and I think this applies to Librari as well, is the lack of multi-user support. I have a lot of books in my "home library", spread out over a few rooms. But I'm not the only person interacting with this library. Their are books on the shelves that "belong" to other people in the house, and we all joint manage the books. Sharing logins can work, but misses out on so many things that we would like to have.

My dream tool for this would allow multiple people to be "members" of a library, and be able to belong to multiple members themselves. They could collectively manage things like metadata, like what books are on the shelves, but could have individual things like ratings or tracking what they've read.

Plex is actually a really good example of this. I hope some day to find a tracker like that for my books.

That's what I learned in my university data structures course. I don't know anything about C++'s std::deque though.

It doesn't use Chromium. I think that their point is that Firefox's rendering engine, Gecko, can only have an impact on the rendering engine space proportional to its user base, which they have argued is insignificant.

During our early exploration, someone made a data loader that returned an entire svg of a chart, instead of the data for a chart. I think it was a headless browser running Observable Plot, but I imagine there are lots of ways to generate charts in a data loader.

The docs for data loaders are here: https://observablehq.com/framework/loaders. The simple version is they are simply programs that write their output to standard out. Very Unixey. When those programs are referenced in client side parts of the JS, they are reactively run when in development, and prebuilt for deployment.

I don't think we have any full examples of using a database yet, but we have written a bit about using DuckDB via its Node bindings here: https://observablehq.com/framework/lib/duckdb

I imagine that either Malloy's CLI or its Python bindings would fit very well here.

Observable engineer here. I haven't looked into Malloy much, but Framework's data loaders are very flexible. If you can write a script or binary that uses Malloy and writes to stdout, it can be a data loader. For example, although we use SQL a lot in our internal usage of Framework, Framework doesn't actually have any specific SQL support. We just use our database's normal bindings.
