docs: conceptual documentation for key concepts

Open lostmygithubaccount opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

This issue is not fully thought through, opening for public discussion/input.

Ibis has some number of concepts that should be captured in the conceptual documentation -- the "nouns" that are used throughout the rest of the documentation. This may include:

  • tables and views
  • expressions (table and column?)
  • type system
  • UDFs
  • connections (backends)
  • batch vs streaming

This is not an exhaustive list.

We should also document important concepts like the architecture and principles for developing Ibis.
