# Context

Julia enthusiasts are always pitching the language to colleagues, and despite various technical arguments, we often fail to show how the language can concretely impact scientist’s productivity.

Given this context, I am starting this thread to collect concrete evidence that the language enables state-of-the-art package ecosystems.

# Goal

The ultimate goal is to collect comparison tables between Julia package ecosystems and alternatives written in other languages. These tables can be worth 100 pitch talks if potential users have specific software demands.

# Instructions

- Please add a single table per comment
- Paste the table/figure directly for posterity
- Add a source link where the (updated) table is available

# Aftermath

We plan to add a link to this thread in the Julia manifesto if the number of tables is representative of the Julia experience across various scientific fields:

> <https://github.com/Datseris/whyjulia-manifesto/issues/10>

> What do you think of adding a section in the manifesto for comparison tables?
> 
> E…xamples:
> 
> \- https://juliaearth.github.io/GeoStatsDocs/stable/#Overview
> \- https://docs.rxinfer.com/stable/manuals/comparison

I will start adding tables I am aware of in the comments below.

Thanks in advance for the help.
