In this thread I’d like to share my list of most desired features for Julia v1.x: The ability to manipulate types in a parametric type as discussed here (see also #18466 ) Interfaces or traits: #6975 Default field values: #10146 With these features I should be near 100% happy with the language, …

The ability to broadcast indexing operations in a convenient fashion, as dicussed in Issue 19169 .

Commercial/Research: One feeds off the other, and in my opinion, without strong commercial interest, it’ll be always be an uphill battle to get funding. So for example, compilation to a small executable that can run my newest NN on an android… Data: Although there has been some significant impro…

[image] RoyiAvital: Julia Application Compiler Being able to create a self contained package of Julia Code which can run on any computer. The main reason for that (Similar to the EXE request above) is for UI. Create a shareable UI / Application. It has no contradiction with Open Source . Open …

I’d alsp like to see static compilation to standalone compiler free binaries.

I’ll second the notion that the community can do a lot about many of the issues here, without it being required for Julia 1.0. As evidence, Revise.jl may address various posts here about “slow startup” and “wish I didn’t have to restart Julia so much.” All this did was capitalize on some work that J…

After looking at this: [image] Recommendation for logging? General Usage On https://pkg.julialang.org/ i find three logging packages: https://github.com/colinfang/MiniLogging.jl https://github.com/invenia/Memento.jl https://github.com/kmsquire/Logging.jl and then there…

Shorter time-to-first-plot is not a good reason for migrating from Gadfly to Plots. The best advice is for people to use the plotting package that lets them express the plots they need in a way that’s intuitive for them. If there is one reason to recommend Plots it’s the idea of recipes – allowing p…

[image] Why type instability? General Usage If Julia enforced type stability, it would be a statically typed language. This would not be a minor change to the language – it would literally be the single most fundamental change to the language that can possibly be made. Per…

[image] ChrisRackauckas: Though it would be interesting to have a v0.7 “stable update phase”, with a long (3-6 months?) “let’s get together and update the ecosystem and get rid of everything which isn’t working” time. Essentially: “Julia 1.0 is already complete. It is exactly v0.7 but without th…

[image] ggggggggg: Rust is doing something they call the Libz Blitz That is a great link! I think that the Julia package ecosystem could really benefit from some similarly focused attention. Unfortunately, I’m worried that the folks at Julia Computing feel so much pressure to release 1.0 that…
