Ask HN: What are low level visualization libraries other than D3.js?
15 points by p33p on Aug 10, 2021 | hide | past | favorite | 3 comments
I’m interested in making highly customized visualizations that are highly dense in data. Is D3.js still the defacto low level visualization library? Is JavaScript the only option? Are there any low level alternatives in either scripting languages like python and R, or in compiled languages like C++ or Rust?


Here are two points of entry for libraries (mostly JS, R)

- http://selection.datavisualization.ch/

- https://datavizcatalogue.com/

Libraries off the top of my head:

- https://visjs.org/


I'm a big fan of http://chartd.co/ (and stathat in general) for charts specifically. This won't help other visualizations though .


for R there is always https://ggplot2.tidyverse.org/

i am unsure if ggplot2 is in vogue, having not used R for a decade
