# Dash Labs tech preview



  

    

  



This repository contains a work-in-progress technical preview of potential future Dash features. 

> 🚧 Dash Labs features are not guaranteed to land in the official `dash` package. These features are also not officially supported by Plotly's Support Team or by Dash Enterprise. We recommend waiting for these features to land in `dash` before using them in a Production Environment. 🚧
