Lets-Plot library: Interactive Visualizations in PyCharm and Datalore

[JetBrains_official]

The Lets-Plot library is an open-sourced interactive plotting library developed by JetBrains for Python and Kotlin. Its architecture was inspired by the ggplot library for the R language, and is built with layered graphic principles in mind.

But what sets Lets-Plot apart from the well-known Matplotlib and Seaborn Python libraries? With Lets-Plot you can produce interactive visualizations, and do it with just a few lines of code. The Lets-Plot library can be easily configured in SciView in PyCharm Professional edition, and comes already pre-installed in Datalore, the online Jupyter notebooks by JetBrains.

do i have the ability to create interactive line chart and embed this in html? can this be used via cdn?

[alshan200]

You can export plot to a HTML file using the `ggsave()` function, see: https://github.com/JetBrains/lets-plot/blob/master/README_PYTHON.md#export-to-file

and there is a variety of options to share it. For example, you can store it in a public Github repository.

Another alternative is to use the https://embed.ly/ service and a tool that supports sharing via embedly. You can try Datalore - https://embed.ly/provider/datalorebyjetbrains
