+1 for Stream Deck! I also add in Super Macro, which I use for automation of keyboard input (e.g. code snippets) while I'm talking (it also allows me to add timeouts and pauses so that it's a bit easier to narrate at a comfortable speed while that's all going on)

I got a bit of time on this today! Without the index column requirement, I can use this to accept multiple measures and handle splits. This example is 253K rows, but only has 364 unique values, so the DAX is fast and in-visual calcs take ~10ms. Top split = spring/summer, bottom = autumn/winter

I did a post recently on Deneb's AppSource downloads (which is the only metric I can get).

TL/DR: its usage is growing YoY (113K developer downloads, 16K unique orgs for 2024-2025).

Actual report viewers is something I can't get hold of.

Great catching up with you, Jeff!

Thanks! I have a similar relationship with some of the data viz books I've acquired over the years. As I'm now also an accidental app developer, I now need to find my way with UX and design, and I figure there's going to be some good, and some not so good that I can glean from these, too!

*About* a week. Not too bad with the long weekend in the middle!

Thanks to you both for a great and insightful interview!

(and thanks also for the book recommendation - I'm looking forward to it arriving via one of NZ's near-glacial pace logistics channels, hopefully sometime in the next few weeks)

This reminds me that I have a brand new violin plot visual prototype sitting around unfinished and nowhere near enough free time available to get on with sorting it out 😅

Thanks to you all for the inspiration! I did search on Bluseky for the three of you hoping I could tag you in the OP but none of you (somewhat oddly) didn't come up in the results. The linked post does credit you all for the awesome work (and I've followed you and Kev now I have your profiles 👍)

And as I've become an accidental PM and developer over the last few years, I'm learning this the hard way with Deneb. Going from an app that we were never sure if it could ever work, to one that now needs much more extensibility, is why v2 development is taking so long (and pretty much a re-write)

And yes, API first might be regarded as a difficult (and perhaps slow development) step in getting a feature out, but it should be part of the roadmap somewhere for ongoing success IMHO

I couldn't agree more with the goal of inclusive user experience, but without a suitable API-first approach to development, the UI component becomes challenging to maintain*. Does this sound familiar? 😅

* IDK if this is how the feature is actually designed

💯

And I hope that maybe one day, we'll get bookmark/action APIs for custom visuals, too. There are so many possibilities for building richer navigation experiences this way that we can't currently entertain 🙃

Great seeing you all (albeit briefly)!
