Hi @zndr27, thanks for raising this issue. It should be possible to create a zarr store directly using [zarr-python](https://github.com/zarr-developers/zarr-python), make sure it has a dimension name containing "meta", save it,...

Hi @alimanfoo, thanks for raising this. > I would've thought that latitude and longitude would be 1-dimensional coordinate variables, yet they are drawn as 2-D arrays? I think that if...

Whilst trying to use this figure to explain our data model to someone at SciPy I realised that we also need separate versions of this figure for just a `DataArray`...

My 2 cents: > How important is the argument order for the plotting functions? Obviously it would be nice to be able to get the arguments in the same order...

@rabernat I'm going to be making a simple plasma physics-oriented xarray tutorial to give at a workshop next week. I was wondering - if we're uploading real data for these,...

> Typing duck array is also a little challenging I find Thanks @Illviljan - I was literally just thinking about that [here](https://github.com/pydata/xarray/pull/6903/files#r941697640).

Another thing that might be useful is the [hypothesis strategies](https://github.com/data-apis/array-api-tests/blob/master/array_api_tests/hypothesis_helpers.py) in the test suite for the array API consortium standard (cc @keewis).
