10 years ago I loathed doing plots in Matplotlib. When Plotly offline version matured (circa v 4) I moved over. Lately, I've found that matplotlib is just fine for quick exploration when combined with Copilot prompts. Instead of spending 20 minutes staring at matplotlib documentation, I can be done in 2 minutes with a prompt or two. # my prompt can be something like get me horizontal bar chart of columns "foo" and "bar" from current dataframe. Rotate x axis ticks 45 degrees. Add y grid every 10 values. Use log scale for y. Add arrows with values for maximum values. Use emojis for markers. # result might require tiny bit of adjustment but will basically be there. # Full disclosure: I haven't tried the emoji prompt...
