While reading @madzadev β€˜s article "9 Open Source Projects Every Developer Needs to Bookmark for Their Workflow", I realized how useful it would be to create a similar list specifically for data scientists/analysts. Inspired by that idea, I’ve put together a list of open-source projects designed to make our workflows faster, data processes smoother, and maybe even spark some fresh ideas. This list includes both well-known tools and a few hidden gems that have big potential.


I hope you may find something that’s helpful and inspiring for you. Leeet’s dive in! πŸš€πŸš€
