Thank you for sharing that observation and the suggestion! I will keep that in mind :)

Cool to hear that! To be honest, we regularly refactor our architecture at bamboolib in order to make sure that there is almost no gap between what we would love to say in natural language and the code that we need to write. This resulted i

Fair points. I guess in this specific case at hand, companies can switch between bamboolib, mito, dtale and it is less likely that all of them will become unavailable at the same time. The switch is also not so hard because there are no und

I can totally relate that finding a suitable open-source business model is a fuzzy journey. Nevertheless, from the user perspective I would love to hear a more clear answer - at least for e.g. the next 6-12 months. Currently, it seems like

Thanks for mentioning Altair. I am personally also a big fan. I am one of the co-founders of bamboolib and we are actively thinking about adding support for altair to the Plot Creator (instead of just relying on Plotly). Since we are talkin

bamboolib co-founder here: It's correct that bamboolib is (still) closed-source (which might be subject to change but I don't make promises). It's also correct that customers can extend the bamboolib UI in various ways via pl

To the founders of mito, regarding the mito GPL license: What is your take on that regarding usage inside cloud provider's notebooks like AWS, GCP, Azure, Databricks? Is it allowed or not allowed by the license? And who should/can

I love how mito enables companies to use the power of open-source! You might want to think about enabling companies to create the company specific extensions themselves e.g. via a plugin API. You might still request them to pay for this ver

Yes, I am one of the co-founders of bamboolib and employed by Databricks. I already added my disclosure to the following answer [0] in this thread but I was hesitant to add it to every answer. Do you prefer if I explicitly add my affiliatio

I am not so sure about the open-source fact. Please see comments and thread below. Edit: It is GPL by now as seen here https://github.com/mito-ds/monorepo/blob/dev/LICENSE

Can you please clarify what you mean by "mito is open-source"? Last time I checked the code was under a proprietary license. Edit: I found in another comment below that mito is now available under GPL license here: https:/&#

If you are a large company trying to migrate to Python, you might also want to have a look at bamboolib.com which was acquired by Databricks. bamboolib is very similar to mito (hard to tell who was first). The advantage is that it runs with
