Lux 0.5 Release

It has been over a year since our first release of Lux. We continue to see awe-inspiring use cases of Lux for helping data scientists visualize their pandas dataframes with zero effort. If you are not familiar with Lux, you can read more about it here.

Today, we’re excited to announce the release of Lux 0.5!  The focus of this release is mainly around improving maintenance and stability in the core Lux library to ensure version compatibility and setup across a variety of platforms. Some new changes include:

• improved support for pandas datetime objects 📅
• added quick debug capability for troubleshooting install & setup 🛠️
• compatibility with pandas 1.2 and 1.3 🐼
• many bugfixes 🐞

You can try out the latest version of Lux on your own by installing via PyPI or conda

pip install --upgrade lux-api

or

conda install -c conda-forge lux-api

Make sure to follow the setup instructions for your notebook environment (e.g., Jupyter Notebook, Lab). Check out our release notes for more details!
