Scattering plugin for Maya
I use code modified from this https://scipython.com/blog/poisson-disc-sampling-in-python/ I actually do a who lecture on how to write a C++ python module on it, you can see the code here https://github.com/NCCA/PipelineAndTD/tree/main/Lecture3Python/DiskSampling Won't take much to convert this into something for Maya if you need it.

Graphics module for python?
I would use PySDL for simple stuff (I have issues with Tk not working on my M1 mac). If you want to go really simple and just dump to an easy file format you can create your own. This module https://github.com/NCCA/PipelineAndTD/blob/main/Lecture6Systems/ByteImage/ByteImage.py will allow you to set lines in a simple RGBA framebuffer then write the results to a ppm file. and requires no extra modules.

How can I make a library in C++ for Python
There are may ways, I would suggest using PyBind11 or SWIG. Personally I use pybind11 as I like the syntax. I have some lecture notes on it here https://nccastaff.bournemouth.ac.uk/jmacey/msc/PipeLineAndTD/lectures/Lecture3/ and in particular examples showing this (taking a python file, converting it to C++ then making it a module). here https://github.com/NCCA/PipelineAndTD/tree/main/Lecture3Python/DiskSampling
