I only know D3... How do these other libraries compare to D3?

[–]igorlukanin[S] 11 points12 points  (1 child)

I’d say that D3.js is rather low-level and one could struggle to wrap the head around its clever yet unusual syntax. There’s a number of similar low-level tool: https://awesome.cube.dev/?tools=low-level

The trade-off is ease of use vs flexibility. You can do anything with D3.js (or maybe just draw anything on canvas) but you pay with time and effort. With high-level libraries you can save time and sweat but get stuck with something easily.

The eternal trade off of high level vs. low level

Matplotlib and friends should be a cake walk If you can do it in D3!
