[User story proposal] Xarray for Electrophysiology

[jhamman]

This is a proposal for a electrophysiology use case story for Xarray. The story will be published on Xarray's blog (https://xarray.dev/blog).

Why?

Xarray has seen a bit of use in electrophysiology (see @gweindel's recent tweet or this older post from @choldgraf). A user story blog post showing how Xarray can be used to represent and analyze electrophysiology data would help socialize the concept across the Xarray developer and electrophysiology communities.

What?

We are targeting a short and non-technical post that illustrates how Xarray is (or could be) used in your electrophysiology context. Below is a template outline that you should feel free to modify:

1. Who am I?
2. What problem am I trying to solve?
3. How does Xarray help?
4. Why did I choose Xarray?
5. Current pain points (or ways that Xarray could better serve your use case)
6. Technology I use around Xarray
7. Anything else to know?
8. Links and references

Feel free to insert images or short code blocks if they help you tell your story.

How?

Xarray's blog using Markdown with some front-matter. You can copy one of the existing posts to get started or you can write in a google-doc-like-thing and ask us to do the markdown formatting. If you copy a previous post, use a name like user-story-electrophysiology or whatever makes sense for your application.

@GWeindel - would you be interesting in writing up a post based on your recent paper?

[GWeindel]

Hi thanks for the invite, I'll write the post with pleasure! I'll just first write up the paper associated with the package and then submit the post.
