Sigbla, a framework for working with data in tables

Hi r/Kotlin !

I wanted to share with you a Kotlin app/tool/framework/dsl I’ve named Sigbla: https://github.com/sigbla/sigbla-app

I released this yesterday after working on it over the last few years. It’s something I wanted to build because I was doing a lot of data analysis, and I wanted to do that in Kotlin on the JVM, putting data into tables.

Other options at the time, like Python/NumPy/Jupyter or Excel, didn’t tempt me due to performance and memory challenges + not being Kotlin/JVM, etc. Also, having previously done lots of work in Clojure, I wanted to make use of persistent data structures, while at the same time make these easily consumable without needing to adapt a whole new programming model.

It’s still early stage but the core structures are in place now, and keen to get any feedback from fellow Kotlin data wranglers.
