oz VS scientific-visualization-book

This was a monthly meeting, focused on Oz by Christopher Small.

It will be a monthly meeting, focusing on Oz from a developer's point of view. We will dive into the code and learn how to extend it.

I've created a large table in my Reagent app. For each row, I've created a vega-lite plot via oz that only appears when hovering over a row like this: [:div [:div.label "Hover for plot"] [:div.hide [oz.core/vega-lite {:data ...}]]]

Anyone have experience with both MatPlotLib and Vega / Vega-lite? I like working in Clojure and am just about to do a bunch of data-viz.

I've only done a simple line chart so far, and I used this oz library for interfacing with Clojure and displaying results in the browser. [1]

One of the problems was lack of error messages. Not sure what part of the tooling was failing me there.

FWIW it looks pretty like metasoarous/oz by u/metasoarous

You might look at Oz. It does a ton more than you are asking, but one of it's features is static site generation. It works from hiccup or markdown etc.

knowing matplotlib really well gets really pro viz tbh, this https://github.com/rougier/scientific-visualization-book is the best resource for it imo. Its a bit more work but you can get really great results

I had the same problem until I found this tutorial:

If you wan something deeper the same person has written a book:

i saw this one : > https://github.com/rougier/scientific-visualization-book

I re-created the hatching using matplotlib as shown here.

From the open access book "Scientific Visualization: Python + Matplotlib. Code: dungeon.py

For python this open access book is excellent: https://github.com/rougier/scientific-visualization-book
