framework

I’ve been using the Observable Framework[1] for this kind of work but it doesn’t appear to be actively developed anymore so will look into Datasette. [1] https://github.com/observablehq/framework

Observable Framework[0] attempted to fill this niche for a while as well, and we'll likely see some of the implementation details in the new Observable Notebook 2.0 format too. [0]: https://github.com/observablehq/framework

https://behavior.today I'm building this site to display behavioral therapy data better for parents / caregivers. The site itself is just Next.js but the essence is ETL and data visualizations using the Observable Framework[1]. There is an opportunity to apply AI for Q&A.

> Once diagnosed, many children receive Applied Behaviour Analysis (aba) Shameless plug but to see ABA data better, I built a site with the Observable Framework[1] that analyzes sessions at: https://behavior.today [1] https://github.com/observablehq/framework

https://behavior.today I cloned Paddle's NextJS starter kit[1] and incorporated my previous reporting code built with Observable Framework[2]. It actually took longer to get the website (domain, terms, privacy) approved by Paddle and my identity verified by its 3rd party than to vibe code the site with Claude Code.

Based on mb's response [0], it seems existing Framework features are being refitted to the new notebook format. [0]: https://github.com/observablehq/framework/discussions/2022

We just use Observable Framework https://github.com/observablehq/framework

Before they tried to build a business with their notebooks alone, but they recently released Observable Framework[0], which is "a static site generator for data apps, dashboards, reports, and more" that you can install and run offline via npm[1]. IIUC the business plan is to make money by hosting the generated sites on their website, and offering tight integration with their existing notebook tech to continue to let people edit those cooperatively. I really hope they succeed because I'm a big fan of both Observable notebooks and the new Observable Framework (and their Observable Plot library is pretty good too. Really, they have tons of good stuff). But basically, they now have two products, as mentioned in the "overview" section of their docs[2].

Thanks for the feedback. We implemented the transform to strip TypeScript annotations (using esbuild)… https://github.com/observablehq/framework/pull/129 but this approach stalled because it doesn’t implement validation of TypeScript: the TypeScript annotations are simply ignored. I felt this defeats the point of using TypeScript. We probably need to use tsc instead of esbuild to get type checking. Hints welcome!

The React support looks interesting, are there any examples available? I couldn't spot any in https://github.com/observablehq/framework/tree/main/examples

Thanks for the feedback. We have a PR open to make it easier to register new interpreters (without needing to fallback to .sh or .exe); it’ll let you specify the interpreter associated with a given file extension (e.g., .kts for Kotlin). https://github.com/observablehq/framework/pull/935 As for inputs-driving-data-loaders, that does go against the grain a bit since Framework favors static data snapshots so that the built site is self-contained and performant. But a technique that works well is to generate Parquet files in data loaders representing the superset of data that you want to interact with, and then using DuckDB/SQL in the client to extract the subset you want to visualize. This tends to perform well, though obviously it’s dependent on the size of the superset you want to interact with.
