dayplot looks like a great library for getting a yearly/monthly/weekly view on time-series data! 🚀📅

Panel Graphic Walker

A new way for creating Tableau like data exploration interfaces with #python and just a few lines of code!

It's a basically a Panel (Holoviz) widget which brings the JS project graphic-walker into python.

Filtering data with few peaks, like a spectrum? Weighted Whittaker Smoother seems like a good alternative:

- Filters noise out effectively
- Can be adjusted on peak wavelengths to filter less
- Quite simple

What might be surprising, sometimes the unary addition does something, though (if the object implements __pos__(self))

matplotlib tip: It's possible to move back and forward zoom levels in the GUI with left and right arrow keys (and C and V for left hand use).

That makes looking around data much faster (no need to hit the home button and start over)

Looks like a library that could be useful when writing unit tests!

It's for creating and updating inline snapshots in tests.

Just learned about ClickPy: an alternative to pypistats.org & pepy.tech#python package download stats 🐍📊

Highlights:
- 📊 FULL history of the package
- 🔍 Filter by time range and see widgets updating (YES!😍)
- ⭐ GitHub star history
- 📦 Dependents

Interesting! Would it be something similar to a dumbbell chart?
