+
+### [~~:plugins:dataframe-gradle-plugin~~](./dataframe-gradle-plugin)
+The Gradle plugin for DataFrame that can generate data schemas from a data sample using the simple
+task `dataframes {}`. It uses [:plugins:symbol-processor](./symbol-processor) to generate column accessors.
+
+NOTE: This plugin is disabled as KSP1 is no longer compatible with Kotlin 2.3+.
+
+### [~~:plugins:symbol-processor~~](./symbol-processor)
+The KSP plugin that can generate data schemas from a data sample using the `@file:ImportDataSchema` annotation.
+It is also used to generate column accessors for in the form of extension properties for 
+(both manually written- or generated) `@DataSchema` annotated classes/interfaces.
+
+NOTE: This plugin is disabled as KSP1 is no longer compatible with Kotlin 2.3+.
+
+### [~~:plugins:kotlin-dataframe~~](./kotlin-dataframe)
+The Kotlin 2.x Compiler plugin of DataFrame.
+A plugin for your Kotlin project that can generate on-the-fly column accessors for the compiler and IDE even without

+https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin/tree/master/plugins/kotlin-dataframe
