  It’s not easy to do radial stuff right now; you can upvote this issue: https://github.com/observablehq/plot/issues/133 https://github.com/observablehq/plot/issues/133 One bizarre workaround right now is to abuse the geographic projections: https://observablehq.com/@observablehq/pie-to-donut-chart https://observablehq.com/@observablehq/pie-to-donut-chart In general, you can do a lot of customization, including plugins (though that’s not well-documented yet), so you could make it work… see https://observablehq.com/@fil/radial-transform https://observablehq.com/@fil/radial-transform, https://observablehq.com/@observablehq/plot-radial-line https://observablehq.com/@observablehq/plot-radial-line for other approaches to hacking radial stuff into Plot. You can do Cartesian tree diagrams in Plot, e.g. https://observablehq.com/@observablehq/plot-tree-flare https://observablehq.com/@observablehq/plot-tree-flare, https://observablehq.com/@observablehq/plot-custom-tree-layout https://observablehq.com/@observablehq/plot-custom-tree-layo... If you want to make a chord diagram like that “Müsli Ingredient Network” example, you could try one of these D3 examples: https://observablehq.com/@d3/chord-diagram https://observablehq.com/@d3/chord-diagram, https://observablehq.com/@d3/hierarchical-edge-bundling/2 https://observablehq.com/@d3/hierarchical-edge-bundling/2
