Gurobi Pandas question: Can Gurobi fork it to work with FireDucks
AnsweredHi Gurobi Pandas team,
My co-worker just pointed me to FireDucks (https://fireducks-dev.github.io/) an alternative to Pandas. It uses the same syntax as Pandas (unlike polars) and with similar or better speed improvements over Pandas. In some of my past applications, the slowest part was setting up the data for optimization, not the optimization with Gurobi. It would be great if the speed ups in FireDucks could be incorporated into Gurobi Pandas.
Thanks! Shawn

Hi Shawn,
The good news is, since gurobipy-pandas is open source, anybody can fork it and build the support for FireDucks!
The bad news is it looks like FireDucks averages about 7.5k downloads a week. (For comparison Pandas averages about 70M downloads a week). It is likely we'll leave this one for the community to implement, but we'll keep an eye on FireDucks and see if it improves in popularity. Thanks for putting it on our radar.
