I made this plot using Matplotlib + plotnine and added interactive tooltips with @joseph-barbier.bsky.social ’s ninejs library. A nice way to bring some interactivity to static visualizations!

(1/4) TIL about the plotnine library- the grammar of graphics in #Python 🚀
I had never heard about the Plotnine library until I came across the Posit Plotnine contest (link below). The plotnine is a Python implementation of a grammar of graphics based on the #ggplot2 library.

This week's #tidytuesday was all about palm trees 🌴 and my #pydytuesday mission was using #plotnine 🚀
I made my first few plots using matplotlib and seaborn, but plotnine is waaaay more intuitive as a longtime #rstats user transitioning to #python.
🌴 heights and fruit color vary by palm subfamily!

Super useful new feature! I've started to recommend plotnine to everybody who does data analysis in python and needs a plotting solution, so this is very welcome.
Announcing Plotnine 0.15.0: The Python package for Grammar of Graphics gets a massive upgrade!
A new feature is Native Plot Composition: combine multiple independent plots into one figure, no more layout managers for multi-panel #Python graphs!

all of modern python data analysis packages are but reimplementing R packages
plotnine -> ggplot2
ibis -> dplyr
polars seems to also be heavily inspired by dplyr
I also see packages using formula notation now (pyfixest for example)
