Add a ROADMAP.md or PLANNING.md to the repo
For greater visibility a high-level doc would be helpful. High-level roadmap doc from 7.x -> 8.0 -> 8.1 -> 9.x would be a helpful community addition. Highlighting backwards incompatibility would be helpful somewhere too.
Make sure to document what frontends support ipywidgets 8.0 (like jlab 3)
Note to self: For 8.0 we split the JS base package so that major releases of Jupyterlab does not require a new release of all custom widget packages 🎉
Add links to Discourse for widgets
- [ ] Ask Chris for top level widgets (jupyter-widgets)
@choldgraf Would you be able to create a high-level jupyter-widgets category in Discourse. There will be some backward-incompatible changes coming with 8.x release. It would also help with community q&a re: widgets config, authoring, and compatibility. Thanks!
During the dev meeting, we briefly considered whether we wanted to use Discourse or GitHub Discussions. One other nice thing about using Discourse is that Discourse spans across the project, and discussions and participants are not isolated to one particular repo or GitHub organization. To me, that's yet another huge vote in favor of Discourse.
Hey all - sorry for the slow turnaround, I totally lost track of this in between diaper changes. Here's a top-level category for widgets:
https://discourse.jupyter.org/c/widgets/46
I recommend that folks take time to post questions, discussions, etc in there, and to encourage others to post in the forum as well! The top-level categories that are most well-used are those that have people consistently paying attention to, and drawing attention to, the discussions in there!
