prettyplotlib
Python matplotlib-enhancer library which painlessly creates beautiful default matplotlib
plots. Inspired by Edward Tufte's work on information design and Cynthia Brewer's work on color perception.
I truly believe that scientific progress is impeded when improper data visualizations are used. I spent a lot of time tweaking my figures to make them more understandable, and realized the scientific world could be a better place if the default parameters for plotting libraries followed recent advances in information design research. And thus prettyplotlib was born.
