  • Have not had bandwidth to start on Settings UI due to JupyterCon, will be busy catching up on other tasks this week, will probably start on it next week. Still open to having others help out if theres interest.
  • Question: I'm currently working on updating Elyra to JupyerLab 3.0 rc5 and am confused by the new federated build system. If extensions now require all these new build files why do the core extensions not have them? Is it possible to script thier creation in some way?
