Is there planned support for any other languages than Python?

Yes! We'd like to get to R and Scala next and hopefully C++ soon. We'd love help from open-source collaborators. Our team is definitely strongest in Python.

I'd definitely be interested in looking into this but I'm on an R team. Didn't see anything on how to contribute in another language or an API to hit. Will be there be information soon?

Hi. R is really important to us and we want to add support (probably through SparklyR). If you email me I can add you to our Slack channel and we can talk through extending Quilt (aneesh at quiltdata dot io). There is a sliver in our docs but it's not complete: https://docs.quiltdata.com/basics.html

The hooks for extending build targets are here: https://github.com/quiltdata/quilt/blob/4aa6897f9e33349b7778...

Again it's a bit raw but we're here to help make R support easy.
