* (Expect) Running AiiDAlab from docker desktop on windows.
Sasha:
* Starting from the 1st of November, I have no AiiDAlab meetings in my calendar. Why?
* Merged the [viewer PR](https://github.com/aiidalab/aiidalab-widgets-base/pull/373), which took some time.
* Finalized [the bond drawing PR](https://github.com/aiidalab/aiidalab-widgets-base/pull/535) that should hopefully go into the release `v2.1.0` of AWB.
* Doc day: worked on the [viewers module documentation](https://github.com/aiidalab/aiidalab-widgets-base/pull/515).
* I will have a meeting with Nukorn (Corsin's lab) today to start AiiDAlab on Win machine.
* We should plan the next doc day.
* It is planned for the 4-10 of December. Reporting during the AiiDAlab meeting.
Xing:
* AiiDAlab-QE plugin design is finalized (~ 20 PRs). Please check the [documentation](https://aiidalab-qe.readthedocs.io/development/plugin.html) page.
* Plugin entry point supports:
* new property calculation (setting, workchain, result)
* add new computational resources
* structure importer and editor
* result panel only for analysis
* Enhance unit cell editor in aiidalab-widget-base [PR](https://github.com/aiidalab/aiidalab-widgets-base/pull/372) got merged.
Edan:
* `aiida-aurora v0.4.2`/`aiidalab-aurora v0.11.1` released
* Working on proper RTD for Aurora - coming soon!
* Not much else to report in AiiDAlab
* Will begin working on QueryBuilder/ProcessNode search widget next week
* Will add a section in Wiki regarding MVC design
* Working on a GitHub Pages site for the PREMISE project
* Looking at aiidalab.net as example
* Seems like a good bit of unused stuff in the repo - my guess was brought in from initial template commit
* Clean?
* Will test threading vs. async design to speed up app load
* Also lazy-loading imports
Miki
* No significant updates, just worked on reviewing some PRs for the new release of the QE app.
Daniel
* Would be good to decrease the build times for aiidalab-docker-stack (not upload containers as artifacts, only to ghcr.io)
