StatsWithJuliaBook VS Makie.jl

I actually like this book by Yoni Nazarathy

https://statisticswithjulia.org/

They have a book on Mathematics of DL too which is a natural progression from the concepts covered here.

(I am slightly biased towards this since I've known the author by online interactions)

Today I just started read Stats with Julia (https://statisticswithjulia.org/) and I have to say as a CS and math person, I really love this book. Of course one of the reasons may be that I want to learn Julia.

I like what little I have read so far in Statistics with Julia. There is also the recent MIT course Intro to Computational Thinking that uses Pluto and includes statistics and probability at a moderately advanced level.

A single Google search sufficed: https://statisticswithjulia.org/

Here's the corresponding github link to the draft version of the book: https://github.com/h-Klok/StatsWithJuliaBook

Just look at this lotenz attractor https://docs.makie.org/stable/

There does exist some code for reading glyph geometry from fonts - you can find some of it in the Makie source directory: eg https://github.com/MakieOrg/Makie.jl/blob/master/src/bezier.jl - you can see that there's quite a lot though...

You'll want Makie.

Thanks! Looks like the Julia Makie library can do graphics and gui widgets as well -https://github.com/JuliaPlots/Makie.jl

There was also this recent thread where some folks were talking up Makie.jl, for which there is apparently also a Grammar-of-Graphics-style wrapper called AlgebraOfGraphics.jl.

If you're looking for native then Makie.jl is probably your best bet. It's still a little underdocumented and the integrations with the rest of the ecosystem are still incomplete, but it's a pretty amazing plotting library. Fast with easy GPU acceleration, good interactivity and animations (great for making GUIs), and easy to extend.

How tricky or hard would it be to create nice looking plots from that? Something like https://github.com/JuliaPlots/Makie.jl but more low level.
