@alamb Thanks for the feedback > Maybe you have time to pretend you are a first time user and and figure out what is not clear or where the rough edges are. Ideally you could turn that experience into a guide to help others. I open a [PR](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion-python/pull/445) with a draft for the User Guide 😃. While I was writing the guide, I noticed two issues that have a huge impact on the UX and are simple to solve: 1. The IDE cannot provide hints (or autocompletion) because there is no typing information. 2. There are no examples of how to use each method (or function) For solving 1. we could follow the PyO3 [guide](https://pyo3.rs/v0.19.1/python_typing_hints) and add information in .pyi files. For 2. one alternative is to wrap the methods and functions in Python and add docstrings to them (similar to what polars do, see [this](https://github.com/pola-rs/polars/blob/main/py-polars/polars/expr/expr.py#L6980-L7007) for example).
