My efforts on were mostly to compare the workflows (xarray vs. shell commands) and performance improvements possible when using dask-distributed. My efforts on that project have completely stalled and I'm not sure I will return to it. If anyone is interested though, I'd be happy to put that code up on github and let someone else run with it.

An xarray-based replacement for cdo (for example) could have some great advantages: - out-of-core computations - much more flexible (I was using cdo the other day to merge files together and was horrified to see that cdo requires the variables in the two files to [have the same order](https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/mailing_lists/archives/netcdfgroup/2007/msg00150.html)) I'm nut sure how many people will use a cli instead of good-old-python scripts though....

Despite being archaic in terms of its technology (e.g. it requires X11), it is still used daily by a huge number of scientists because it serves a very important need: quick visual examination of a netCDF dataset (also works on remote systems via X forwarding). Imagine a modern implementation of ncview backed by xarray and holoviews/geoviews. ``` $ xrview my_files.*.nc Found 3 data variables and 6 coordinates in dataset Serving HTTP on 0.0.0.0 port 8000 (http://0.0.0.0:8000/) ... ``` This would spawn a web server providing an interactive web-based GUI explorer for all variables in the dataset. You could use this locally or on a remote system. I think such an app would catch on like wildfire. But I agree completely that it is out of scope of xarray and belongs as a standalone project.","{""total_count"": 4, ""+1"": 3, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 1, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,310547057 https://github.com/pydata/xarray/issues/2034#issuecomment-378092990,https://api.github.com/repos/pydata/xarray/issues/2034,378092990,MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDM3ODA5Mjk5MA==,1217238,2018-04-03T00:49:59Z,2018-04-03T00:49:59Z,MEMBER,"This looks like a cool project, but a command line utility for netCDF files is outside the scope of xarray so I think it's best maintained separately.
