Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.

DuckDB has recently introduced end-to-end interaction with Iceberg REST Catalogs directly within a browser tab, requiring no infrastructure setup. The new feature leverages DuckDB-Wasm, a WebAssembly port of DuckDB that runs in the browser, allowing users to query, read, and write Iceberg tables in a serverless manner.
