botplotlib¶

the future is cyborg-source

Matplotlib fed the scientific Python community for two decades and then AI showed up and tried to eat its lunch. botplotlib is us trying to build new community norms that work for everyone. We don't know what open-source looks like when collaborators are AI, so we decided to start with some very overengineered GOVERNANCE.md and AGENTS.md files and a sandwich joke.

Install¶

pip install git+https://github.com/migdaepp/botplotlib.git

For PNG export support (requires Cairo):

pip install "botplotlib[png] @ git+https://github.com/migdaepp/botplotlib.git"

Tutorial¶

The interactive tutorial is a marimo notebook, because marimo is also ai-native and we think they are cool.

pip install marimo
marimo edit docs/tutorial.py
