"A next-gen Python plotting library with SVG-first rendering, interactivity, themes, and clean defaults — better than matplotlib.pyplot"

Project description

GlyphX

A Better, Faster, and Simpler Python Visualization Library

GlyphX is a modern alternative to matplotlib.pyplot with interactive, SVG-based charts that automatically display in:

  • Jupyter notebooks
  • CLI environments
