vtkfig
======
[VTK](http://vtk.org) based C++ graphics library for plotting and for data on rectilinear and unstructured grids with an flexible and easy to use API.
## Features
- Standard views for scalars, vectors and grids in 2D, 3D:
- isolines, filled contours
- plane cuts, isosurfaces
- quiver plots, stream ribbons
- Duck typing based interface for data input in C++ codes
- Separate rendering thread allowing for handling of changing data managed by the vtkfig::Frame class
- Extensible by implementing derived classes containing vtk rendering pipelines from vtkfig::Figure
- Memory management via `std::shared_ptr`
- (Emerging) C API
- (Emerging) companion Julia package [VTKView.jl](https://github.com/j-fu/VTKView.jl) based on C API and Julia `ccall`
- Experimental client-server communication for remote execution
- 3-Clause BSD License ([same as vtk](https://gitlab.kitware.com/vtk/vtk/blob/master/Copyright.txt))

## Contributors
vtkfig started from [matplot](http://www.csc.kth.se/~dag/matplot_20091021.tar.gz) by Dag Lindbo found on [http://na-wiki.csc.kth.se/mediawiki/index.php/Mat_plot_vtk](http://na-wiki.csc.kth.se/mediawiki/index.php/Mat_plot_vtk). Numerous online postings by community members, the VTK examples, the doxygen documentation of VTK and sometimes its source code were helpful for developing this code.
