  • Completions
    • Not a ton of comments on RFC
      • Jason is assuming it's generally good and working on it assuming the RFC is accepted
    • Not a lot of progress yet
      • Jason meet with Jonathan after meeting to look into current prototype.
  • Starship
    • It's now possible to easily add other prompts, like powerline
    • Should we go ahead and remove starship and show people how easy it is to change the prompt to work with the packages like starship and powerline?
    • Should do an RFC
      • Perhaps more general RFC on "Prompts" instead of "Remove starship"
  • Data frames
    • Basically a table with more metadata up front (column names, number of observations, etc)
      • Great for statistical data
      • Homogeneous (data frames) vs heterogeneous (nushell's current format for tables)
    • math avg just work across numeric columns, discard others
    • Issues with ls not having homogeneous data and hacky solutions to fix
    • from json hard to know columsn in advance
      • Would have to load all data to know the "schema"
      • Likely don't want this, so probably need both what we have now along with data frames
    • Probably need an RFC to explore
  • Triage team
    • Figure out how we should go about tagging and prioritizing issues
    • How can we communicate major things being worked on?
  • Theming
    • Chatted about a generalized renderer
      • Could be cool for WASM, where rendering a "command" would create a link to its help docs
      • Reports? Charts? Perhaps need these to be first-class citizens, or somehow the renderer would need to know that "this table can be represented as a chart"
      • autoview was kind of intended to act like this, by registering views for data
      • How could we stream tables and have tables/charts/rendered views update in realtime?
    • Colors in general, how do we represent themes?
  • Parser changes
    • Eventually engage with community to show what scripts will look like
  • Pagination
  • Dependency management
    • Removed nu-build and build.rs
  • Line editing
    • rustyline + keybindings
      • A little messy, hard to work with, not entirely satisfying our needs
      • What do we do? Talk about next time / offline.
