Really interesting, thanks!

Great that it accepts colunar data, that was a question that had immediately sprung to mind. There's something very satisfying about processing data using Arquero's grammar of data transformation and then immediately passing it over to a grammar of data visualisation (Vega Lite, or now Plot).

Alongside arrow, This kind of thing makes me very excited about javascript becoming a serious option for processing even moderately large amounts of data.

Thanks so much for Observable - it's is by far my favourite programming tool for working with data (my day job is Spark, Python and R, pretty strong competition!)
