[v3] Documentation: How to extend Zarr

Open jhamman opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Zarr v3 will have a number of formal extension points and new options. This documentation ticket should explain how developers may choose to extend Zarr:

Some sample topics:

  • how to write a custom store
  • how to write a custom codec pipeline
  • how to subclass array / group (e.g., to have typed attributes, typed members)
  • how to get good performance
  • future extension points
    • storage transformers (e.g. #1718)
    • chunk grids (e.g. #1752)
