These charts are made with ggplot2, which is based on the grammar of graphics. EDIT: I thought Tufte did it, I was wrong. https://www.amazon.com/Grammar-Graphi

  Grammar of graphics is a different guy I think but it doesn't matter what it's based on because they still aren't good! Tufte's whole like, thing is essentially that charts need to be intentionally designed to convey a specific concept to a specific audience via careful choice about what information to present. A library can help you with the shapes but can't automate the decisions.
