Ha! Kedro maintainer just joined on the hamilton slack, and we were talking it over :) here’s what I was thinking:

TL;DR hamilton is lighter weight and less opinionated about non-pipeline stuff, it also has a different way of specifying pipelines (that we prefer).

I think there are a few key differences in the approach: - currently, hamilton is lighter weight and less opinionated about directory structure/style guide. It’s just a library! - Kedro pipelining (from what I understand) has you define the nodes separately to specifying their inputs, whereas in hamilton it’s function-first, and the functions specify everything. It’s funny — Kedro is actually very similar to the framework I first designed to solve the problem and compared with @Stefan Krawczyk’s idea (that became hamilton), I called it “burr” - Kedro has a whole bunch of additional features that allow it to integrate with the outside world and hamilton is pretty lighter weight here (although we’ll likely be adding more)

Ah, cool, thanks for the clarification. Good luck with it all, and congrats on the launch!
