If that bare-bones version gets merged (even as a hidden feature) then others can start having a go at adding images like dask?
We have done something similar using inline svg (see, e.g., https://scipp.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user-guide/data-structures.html#Dataset). It is basically a hack for testing right now, but is sufficient for auto-generated illustration in the documentation.
I am pretty impressed by the html representation previewed in https://github.com/pydata/xarray/issues/1627. Since our data structures are very similar I would be happy to contribute to this output rendering somehow, since we could then also benefit from it (with a few tweaks, probably). So let me know if I can help out somehow (unfortunately I do not know much html and css, just C++ and a bit of Python).","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,287844110
