Vueplotlib
Declarative, interactive, linked components
Overview
Vueplotlib offers an innovative framework designed for creating reusable Vue plot components, leveraging the powerful D3 library. Originally developed for ExploSig, Vueplotlib aims to simplify the process of integrating interactive and dynamic data visualizations into Vue applications. With a focus on user engagement and customizability, this tool provides developers with a robust suite of plotting options tailored to their specific needs.
Beyond just displaying data, Vueplotlib enhances user interaction through features like hover effects, click events, and even the ability to download plots directly as SVG files. This versatility makes it an excellent choice for anyone looking to create rich, interactive visual representations of their datasets.
Features
- Declarative API: Easily declare scales, data, and styling options, making your plots intuitive and straightforward to configure.
- Interactivity: Incorporate hover and click events, along with axis brushing features, to create a dynamic user experience.
- Performance: Designed for speed, Vueplotlib supports canvas plots ensuring quick rendering even for complex data visualizations.
- History Management: Record user interactions, allowing for forward and backward navigation, plus import/export functionality via JSON.
- Composable Structure: Keep axes and legends separate from plots, enabling mixing and matching of components for diverse visualization needs.
- Custom Scalability: Extend the scale classes with innovative approaches, such as GenomeScale and BinaryScale, providing tailored plotting capabilities.
- Broad Component Library: Offers a variety of plot types, including BarPlot, ScatterPlot, and specialized plots like GenomeScatterPlot and StratifiedBoxPlot.
- Future-Ready: With plans for additional components like ViolinPlot and KaryotypePlot, Vueplotlib is poised to expand its offerings significantly.
- Vue
Vue.js is a lightweight and flexible JavaScript framework that allows developers to easily build dynamic and reactive user interfaces. Its intuitive syntax, modular architecture, and focus on performance make it a popular choice for modern web development.
- SCSS
SCSS is a preprocessor scripting language that extends the capabilities of CSS by adding features such as variables, nesting, and mixins. It allows developers to write more efficient and maintainable CSS code, and helps to streamline the development process by reducing repetition and increasing reusability.
- Documentation
Documentation themes are built specifically for writing technical and product documentation. They are normally written and maintained in Markdown. The often include a navigation menu, search bar, clear headings, semantic document structure and clean typography.
