What does HackerNews think of voyager?

Vega and Vega-lite visualization grammars: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vega_and_Vega-Lite_visualisati...

FWIU Vega/voyager suggests similar charts with CompassQL: https://github.com/vega/voyager

From http://vega.github.io/ re: CompassQL:

> COMPASSQL is a visualization recommendation engine. Given user query, it suggests visualizations, ranked by both data properties and perceptual principles

Altair is one implementation of Vega-lite in Python; for rendering charts with JS.

mpld3 does matplotlib with d3.js: https://github.com/mpld3/mpld3

There's also Voyager which generates Vega-Lite spec prediction based on provided data:

I made a small clone just to understand the inner workings of it: https://ellx.io/matyunya/simple-voyager-clone/index.md

Here's my very basic attempt at ggplot-like API on top of Vega-Lite: https://ellx.io/matyunya/plot.

There's also Vega-Lite API for producing spec JSON with more typical chaining calls: https://vega.github.io/vega-lite-api/

It makes me think of Voyager [1][2], based on Vega and Vega-lite, that leverage a grammar of graphics. A neat trick you can do in Julia is use it interactively to generate plot specs [3].

Sadly, looking at the github repo it seems to be unmaintened, so I am glad to see Muze in that space.
