bqplot
2-D plotting library for Project Jupyter
Introduction
bqplot is a 2-D visualization system for Jupyter, based on the constructs of
the Grammar of Graphics.
In bqplot, every component of a plot is an interactive widget. This allows the
user to integrate visualizations with other Jupyter interactive widgets to
create integrated GUIs with a few lines of Python code.
