## :speaking_head_in_silhouette: Breakout Session 2
### Topic
> Are there any updated Julia standards you'd like to see supported by Binder? Such as how requirements are defined, repository organisation or structure, etc?
### Notes
#### Notes from breakout room 1
- Artifacts.toml for binaries, not just source trees. Meant for stuff like if you need Python, put the executable in Artifacts
- interact.jl
- VSCode out-of-box
- cool project: Add custom sysimg compilation as part of the image build. Package installer was not stable at the time, but now?
