Thank you for all the work you have done on this project! I used it to it's full extent and in 3 different projects. ~6m ago I rewrote my favorite parts in javascript and added a touch of my own flare; so thank you!

I feel like there’s a continuum from “interesting” to “useful” to “valuable”.

“Interesting” describes something that happens just behind your eyes. “Useful” is something in your hands. “Valuable” is something passed from your hands to someone else’s.

The github/lab/Jupyter/Python ecosystem has some features that make it hard for people to try on nbdev for size. But you’ve been finding and sharing things of interest, usefulness, and value for a long time. Thanks for sharing these thoughts.

And I’ve always felt you bring a unique voice or brand with your work. You really focus well on practical get-stuff-done data science tooling.
