Vega – A declarative language for interactive visualization designs
- In our case some features were missing (and are still missing) - exponential average - that is most commonly used to smooth ML training curves.

Show HN: I made first declaritive SVG,canvas framework
We use the slightly simpler vega-lite from the same group. It typically gets us 98% of the way there quite quickly.
Its from the same team, just a more simple wrapper around D3.

Ask HN: What's the best charting library for customer-facing dashboards?
I like Vega-Lite: https://vega.github.io/vega-lite/
It’s built by folks from the same lab as D3, but designed as “a higher-level visual specification language on top of D3” [https://vega.github.io/vega/about/vega-and-d3/]
My favorite way to prototype a dashboard is to use Streamlit to lay things out and serve it and then use Altair [https://altair-viz.github.io/] to generate the Vega-Lite plots in Python. Then if you need to move to something besides Python to productionize, you can produce the same Vega-Lite definitions using the framework of your choice.

Vega-Altair: Declarative Visualization in Python
Box zoom would need to be added to Vega-Lite first, and there has been some discussion around it in https://github.com/vega/vega-lite/issues/4742. Bottom line is that there's nothing blocking its implementation, someone just needs to do the work in Vega-Lite. And once released in Vega-Lite, Altair would pick it up automatically with how we generate the Altair API from the Vega-Lite schema.

Gnuplotlib: Non-Painful Plotting for NumPy
I also have difficulties with Gnuplot and Matplotlib. I like Vega that allows me to create visualisations in a declarative way. If I really need something special I go with d3.js, which had a really steep learning curve but with ChatGPT it should have become easier for beginners.

Elixir Livebook is a secret weapon for documentation
To ensure you do not miss this: LiveBook comes with a Vega Lite integration (https://livebook.dev/integrations -> https://livebook.dev/integrations/vega-lite/), which means you get access to a lot of visualisations out of the box, should you need that (https://vega.github.io/vega-lite/).
In the same "standing on giant's shoulders" stance, you can use Explorer (see example LiveBook at https://github.com/elixir-explorer/explorer/blob/main/notebo...), which leverages Polars (https://www.pola.rs), a very fast DataFrame library and now a company (https://www.pola.rs/posts/company-announcement/) with 4M$ seed.

Observable Plot: The JavaScript library for exploratory data visualization
Nice, would be nice to have it integrated in GitHub markdown.
Looks similar to Vega or Vega-lite(https://vega.github.io/vega-lite/). Definitely as rich as D3.js but gets the job done for simple visualisations.
