My understanding of the point of h5netcdf was to provide a netCDF-like interface for HDF5, thereby making it easier to interface with xarray. So one potential answer to the backend API question is simply: make a netCDF-like interface for your library and then xarray can use it.

However we still need a separate h5netcdf backend within xarray, so this design is perhaps not as clean as we would like.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,302806158
