The pandas community

The community of pandas users and developers is large and decentraliazed. We try to direct certain conversations to certain channels.

  1. Use the #pandas tag on StackOverflowopen in new window for usage questions (like “How do I do X in pandas?”)
  2. Use the GitHub issue trackeropen in new window for
    • Bug reports (like “DataFrame.head() returns 6 rows, when it should return 5.”)
    • Documentation issues (like “I found this section unclear”)
    • Feature requests (like “I think the DataFrame repr should include a pandas emoji next to the shape.”)
  3. Use the pandas dev mailing listopen in new window for longer-form discussion items. This is for things that concern the broader pandas community. Most users probably don’t care about an obscure edge-case in Series.str.split (which should be reported on the issue tracker), but may care about larger-picture things like
    • How should we have discussions about pandas and the community?
    • Developing or adding items to a pandas roadmap
    • Announcing sprints or conference talks
    • Changes to the development workflow
    • Announcements for pandas releases and developer meetings
    • …
  4. Use the pandas gitteropen in new window for quick feedback on development issues
    • I’m having trouble setting up the development environment.
    • I messed up my git branches, can someone take a look?
    • …

History of Development

In 2008, pandas development began at AQR Capital Managementopen in new window. By the end of 2009 it had been open sourcedopen in new window, and is actively supported today by a community of like-minded individuals around the world who contribute their valuable time and energy to help make open source pandas possible. Thank you to all of our contributorsopen in new window.

Since 2015, pandas is a NumFOCUSopen in new window sponsored project. This will help ensure the success of development of pandas as a world-class open-source project.
