Me and my team are big tableau users, so now that we are testing Python vega and altair are the natural approach. I am having my struggles to make altair work on jupyterlab (while ipyvega works so I could start playing), but I think it’s worth the effort. The Altair guys are extremely nice and responsive on github which is great too. For those looking for side projects, I think a nice altair gui that works in jupyterlab would be great. Anyway, why this approach is superior? Because once you get it you’ll be amazed the stuff you can do and how easily, also how easy is to train new analysts on this, this is important and matplotlib falls short. But don’t take my word, grab a trial copy of Tableau and see it for yourself.
