Animated Visualizations in Python

Using ipyvizzu for creating animated visualizations

Visualization (Source: By Author)

Data Visualization helps in understanding hidden data patterns and analyzing what data is trying to say. By creating different types of charts and plots we can understand the association and collinearity between the different datasets with the target variable.

Python provides a large number of data visualization libraries like Seaborn, Matplotlib, etc. But none of these libraries have a direct code for creating animated visualizations. Animated visualizations can have different use cases mainly can be used in presentations.

Ipyvizzu is an open-source python library that helps in creating animated visualizations in minimal lines of code. It is based on a Javascript library vizzu. This library not only allows us to create animated charts but also allows us to share them as HTML files.

In this article, we will explore PyGal and create some visualizations using it.

Let’s get started…
