Simple plotting/graphing crate suggestions
I made a gnuplot-based crate sometime ago. It's alright.

Looking for any crates to help me migrate my current workflow to Rust.
I would also look at plotters https://github.com/plotters-rs/plotters to replace mathplotlib. Unfortunately, I'm not aware of any library for image transformations/augmentations.

Iced, a cross-platform GUI library — New release featuring stabilization of stateless widgets, first-class theming, widget operations, lazy widget, and more!
Have you looked into plotters https://github.com/plotters-rs/plotters ? I think it should be possible to integrate it into an app.
- By the way, plotters has an ab_glyph feature now

About plots, besides plotly, take a look at https://github.com/plotters-rs/plotters and https://github.com/milliams/plotlib

2D library with decent text rendering / measuring support
I'd recommend plotters, I've only used it for it's drawing api and I found it quite nice for text rendering.

Discussion: Integrating polars and plotters
For those who do not know about them, polars is a data frame crate for Rust and Python. It is also the fastest data frame library, according to benchmarks. Plotters is a crate for data visualisation. Both are the equivalents of pandas and matplotlib from the Python ecosystem. However, the integration with matplotlib in pandas has no equivalent. I would like to propose an effort to integrate polars with plotters, either by modifying the existing codebases, or creating a new bridge crate. I would love to hear opinions about this from the widder community.
