Vega-Altair: Declarative Visualization in Python
Feel free to open an issue to let us know which parts of the documentation you find obscure and if you have suggestions for how to improve them. We did a larger overhaul a few months back and are always open to feedback on how to improve it further! https://altair-viz.github.io/

Gnuplotlib: Non-Painful Plotting for NumPy
Vega-Altair is pretty great as well. It uses a grammar of graphics that’s slightly different from ggplot, but has most of the same advantages.

If you had to pick a library from another language (Rust, JS, etc.) that isn’t currently available in Python and have it instantly converted into Python for you to use, what would it be?
Yeah, that's one of the main reasons I like altair. It has 10M downloads per month and the newest Git update is from two days ago.

Folium Help
A good thing to try would be to look over the folium documentation on their GitHub Page, Folium. For help with code you could ask ChatGPT to explain what you're interested in using their docs.

Framework suggestions for Map based application
I currently utilize Folium for a work project but would like to move it out of Folium into something that supports API requests for real-time data and vector tiles instead of raster.

2d map visualization library for JS
If you know Python you can use Folium produce Leaflet maps without using Javascript. I'm not sure if the updating functionality you require is possible, but could be worth a look.

Live update maps
Try Folium, here are some examples.

Geohistograms in Python
For our visualizations we will be using Folium. This is a description from the authors:

Placing a Voronoi diagram over a streetmap (using Python)?
I'm mapping some election results, and trying to create a diagrammatic representation of who voted for whom, and where. I'm using Python, and I can create a perfectly respectable initial map (without Voronoi diagrams) using its folium package, with OpenStreetMap tiles. See https://numbersandshapes.net/posts/post_election_swings/.
-
creating a script that displays live GPS telem data on map?
Look in the folium package. https://python-visualization.github.io/folium/

A More Interactive Folium choropleth
Choropleth maps are a quick and easy way to visualize a numeric variable geographically. I love the ease and interactivity of most functions from the folium module, but the choropleth method lacks interactivity and clarity in the legend.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing Altair and folium you can also consider the following projects:
plotly - The interactive graphing library for Python :sparkles: This project now includes Plotly Express!
bokeh - Interactive Data Visualization in the browser, from Python
seaborn - Statistical data visualization in Python
Leaflet - 🍃 JavaScript library for mobile-friendly interactive maps 🇺🇦
ggplot - ggplot port for python
Cartopy - Cartopy - a cartographic python library with matplotlib support
plotnine - A Grammar of Graphics for Python
matplotlib - matplotlib: plotting with Python
