@matplotlib.org is getting more and more interactivity!

"plotjs" converts any existing matplotlib charts to an interactive, web-based version of them, with quite a lot of customization options.

Try it out here: github.com/y-sunflower/...

I've started working on a minimalist PoC that converts @matplotlib.org plots into interactive graphics.

There are a bazillion things to do before it's something robust and stable, but I'm confident it will go somewhere.

Matplotlib is enormous—but just how big is it, really?

Even other well-known tools like Altair and Plotly haven’t reached Matplotlib’s level of adoption—though they do have their own unique features that Matplotlib doesn’t offer.

@matplotlib.bsky.social is much more than just a data visualization library.

This is ~100 lines of code, using numpy+matplotlib

Sometimes, I enjoy reinventing the wheel to suit my needs.

So I ended up creating gifing—a minimalist yet customizable GIF maker for Python.

Right now, it’s a simple, foundational version, but I have some cool feature ideas!
