Vega
NumFOCUS Sponsored Project since 2025The Vega Projects constitute a cohesive ecosystem of visualization libraries: Vega is a visualization grammar; a declarative format for creating, saving, and sharing interactive visualization designs. Vega-Lite provides a higher-level grammar for visual analysis and Vega-Altair provides Python bindings for Vega-Lite. This grammatical implementation of graphics and interactivity produces beautiful and effective visualizations with a minimal amount of code. VegaFusion scales Vega-Altair to large datasets and VL Convert provides publication quality static file export.
