Hey Plotly Community! 
I’m excited to share three new component libraries that bring advanced layout capabilities to your Dash applications. These components are now fully documented with live examples on pip-install-python.com.
I’ve also decided to archive dash-dock and remove the api-key lock required for premium features, all of the components, docks and tools available on pip docs will be open-source with no limitations.
