- Widgets workshop followup items and takeaways: https://github.com/jupyter-widgets/team-compass/issues/16
- Minimal es6 module
- Jason has a separate repo that he hasn't pushed yet
- Pete and Jason will work on a sample extension for JupyterLab
- precommit PR
- Almost there. Working on getting the doc build to not time out (doc build might be flaky?)
- Documentation work
- Docs contrib PR: https://github.com/jupyter-widgets/ipywidgets/pull/3616
- We should have a more advanced example (e.g. TODO app)
- Comm replacement https://github.com/martinRenou/comm/issues/1
- Maarten experimented with implementing this in Solara
- Typing in traitlets https://github.com/ipython/traitlets/pull/788
- Fixing comm target does not exist: proceed on the JEP
- Tech stack discussion takeaways
- Do not move away from traitlets - give it another go with the performance improvements
- Clear documentation on minimal api for widgets and widget managers
- Encourage people to not use jquery, but we should still include it
- A way to gracefully removing jquery is to lazily load jquery on view creation if you know it is going to be needed
- Rich es6 outputs may allow us experiment with radically different tech stacks
- AMD modules should still be produced, even after notebook 6 is deprecated. It may be really difficult to move from AMD to es6 because it would be hard to split out the widget base class to be loaded dynamically from the environment.
- Investigate feasibility of deploying es6 modules in the future
- Traitlets performance
* https://github.com/maartenbreddels/traitlets/pull/1
* https://github.com/ipython/traitlets/pull/777 (not at workshop)
- Contrib repository
- Discussion around using jupyter-contrib, or the Jovyan repo

- SSC and EC election
- Vidar to run the Jupyter Widgets SSC nomination process

- Migration guide
- William comment: https://github.com/sagemathinc/cocalc/issues/6128#issuecomment-1259721179
- action item: william will make a little PR to the migration guide just mentioning that there are additional complexities due to the target changing, and the ipywidgets npm package numbers are not just "7 and 8".
- Documentation guide:
- moved from es5 to es2017 - mention in migration guide for developers, that the target needs to generate es6 classes in both the main changelog and the user widget migration guide
- BaseManager used to be parameterized in typescript, but not anymore? Check and document in upgrading guide
- version number of js packages are different
- `@jupyter-widgets/base` version 4 is ipywidgets 7, version 6 is for ipywidgets 8.
- On the es5->es2017 transition:
- using ipywidgets in webpack is fine, but the ipywidgets js running in nodejs has problems running es6
- [Widgets workshop](https://blog.jupyter.org/jupyter-community-workshop-the-future-of-jupyter-widgets-475f67288da0)
- 18-21 Oct, Bloomberg London office. You're invited!
- No need to register if attending remotely, since that's entirely for food, guest passes, etc.
- Pause for guest introductions
- Eric Gentry - working on nbclassic transition between notebook 6 and notebook 7
