Highlights:

 * [Minimizing widgets](https://support.getgrist.com/newsletters/2023-03/#minimizing-widgets) - if you need more room on a dashboard, you can minimize sections into a kind of button bar. Dynamic linking continues to work, regardless of whether a widget is minimized or expanded. 
 * [Column descriptions](https://support.getgrist.com/newsletters/2023-03/#column-descriptions) - now you can give extra information about a column that doesn't fit naturally in its name (developed by ANCT).
 * New `/download/table-schema?tableId=NNN` endpoint to get a table scheme in [frictionless format](https://specs.frictionlessdata.io/table-schema/) (developed by ANCT).
 * Beta version of a Grist desktop app released at [gristlabs/grist-electron](https://github.com/gristlabs/grist-electron).
 * Beta version of an entirely front-end build of Grist released at [gristlabs/grist-static](https://github.com/gristlabs/grist-static).
