Plotly is a Python library for creating interactive, high-quality graphs and visualizations. It supports a wide range of chart types including line charts, bar charts, scatter plots, 3D plots, and dashboards. Plotly integrates seamlessly with Pandas and supports web-based visualization via Dash. It’s widely used for data analysis, reporting, and creating interactive dashboards for both business and scientific applications.

Installation:

pip install plotly

Example usage:

import plotly.express as px

df = px.data.iris()
fig = px.scatter(df, x="sepal_width", y="sepal_length", color="species")
fig.show()

PyPI page: https://pypi.org/project/plotly/
GitHub page: https://github.com/plotly/plotly.py

3 Project Ideas:

  1. Build an interactive dashboard for sales or business analytics.
  2. Visualize scientific data with interactive 3D plots.
  3. Create a web-based data exploration tool for large datasets.
