  • siuba

    Python library for using dplyr like syntax with pandas and SQL

  • At rstudio::conf(2021) I just saw this yesterday: https://github.com/machow/siuba

  • data.table

    R's data.table package extends data.frame:

  • Imo, the R syntax is way more readable and intuitive. Also R's ggplot is way more intuitive and easier to learn than remembering all the properties/methods with confusing names from matplotlib. Also dplyr works with data.table (the faster data processing library available for R, which is also incredibly faster than pandas).

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
