Multiplatform plotting library inspired by the Grammar of Graphics, enabling creation of customizable visualizations. Supports interactive plotting in various notebooks and embedding in applications. Features include polar coordinates, curve geometries, and advanced customization options.
Lets-Plot is a multiplatform plotting library built on the principles of the Grammar of Graphics.
The library design is heavily influenced by Leland Wilkinson's work The Grammar of Graphics describing the deep features that underlie all statistical graphics.
This grammar [...] is made up of a set of independent components that can be composed in many different ways. This makes [it] very powerful because you are not limited to a set of pre-specified graphics, but you can create new graphics that are precisely tailored for your problem.
