Whoa, nice! I could see this being useful to people I work with. Do you think it would be a good setup for people who are technical but not great software developers? People who use basic R and Python for ETL and analysis, mostly.

I'm using DuckDB in another project (on my laptop) where `NetworkX` fails due to the memory limit of 32 GB. So yes, as soon as you are doing out of core work I'd assume the combination to be quite powerful. Knowledge in SQL would be a plus, though.
