Dataframe API standard

This repository contains documents, tooling and other content related to the API standard for dataframes, and the dataframe interchange protocol.

This protocol is released and the specification should be considered stable. It has implementations in multiple dataframe libraries (Pandas, cuDF, Modin, Vaex at least). It may be extended and receive other necessary tweaks for things discovered in the process of being adopted by a wider set of libraries. Relevant content and links:
