The python package dagit has been deprecated in favor of a new package dagster-webserver

I still the the installation instructions using

dagit

and the new dagit package is also tagged

1.3.14

. Do we need to change the installation package or is it automatic?

Hey Alvin, the instructions will be updated this week with release of 1.4. You should use

dagster-webserver

as a drop-in replacement for

dagit

now, though

dagit

will continue to work through

2.0

(it just consumes

dagster-webserver

as a dependency).

Hey @sean, A question to clarify as the doc is not updated yet. Is it: A) The component in the dagster ecosystem will still be called "Dagit" and it's just a package name + cli change Or B) It will be renamed and referenced everywhere as "Dagster webserver" from now on, even if back-compatiblity is maintained ?

Hey @sean, Piggybacking on that, where can we find a roadmap / list of future features that will be released in

1.4

?

A) The component in the dagster ecosystem will still be called “Dagit” and it’s just a package name + cli change

Or

B) It will be renamed and referenced everywhere as “Dagster webserver” from now on, even if back-compatiblity is maintained

It is being renamed everywhere, although it is not as straightforward as using “Dagster webserver” everywhere since “Dagit” has been used to refer both to the server and to our browser UI. The server is now called “the Dagster webserver” and the UI is called “the Dagster UI”. The

dagster-webserver

package runs the server and serves the UI.

Thanks a lot!

fwiw I like the change. I've had several people infer that the "dagit" we were talking about was related to git.
