Description
This is a proposal for a plasma physics use case story for Xarray. The story will be published on Xarray's blog (https://xarray.dev/blog).
Why?
Xarray is used in a number of plasma physics applications today (e.g. OMFIT, xBOUT). A user story blog post showing how Xarray can be used to represent and analyze the types of data frequently used in plasma physics. It would also help socialize the use of Xarray for this use case across the Xarray developer and plasma physics communities.
What?
We are targeting a short and non-technical post that illustrates how Xarray is (or could be) used in your plasma physics context. Below is a template outline that you should feel free to modify:
- Who am I?
- What problem am I trying to solve?
- How does Xarray help?
- Why did I choose Xarray?
- Current pain points (or ways that Xarray could better serve your use case)
- Technology I use around Xarray
- Anything else to know?
- Links and references
Feel free to insert images or short code blocks if they help you tell your story.
How?
Xarray's blog using Markdown with some front-matter. You can copy one of the existing posts to get started or you can write in a google-doc-like-thing and ask us to do the markdown formatting. If you copy a previous post, use a name like user-story-plasma-physics or whatever makes sense for your application.
