Currently, the package is just a quick experimental skeleton for personal use, not really usable.
D3Py
====
D3Py is a thin Python wrapper for D3.js. The main goal is to enable users to
easily copy-paste beautiful D3.js visualizations from http://bl.ocks.org and use
them in their Jupyter Notebooks for their own data.
Other features:
- two-way synchronization:
- update graphs based on updates on Python data
- update Python data based on (user) interactions on the graph
- support other JS libraries
Change of plans:
Support general JavaScript plotting libraries. D3.js is often too low level, so
make it possible to use other JS libraries easily. Some of them are built on top
of D3.js and some are not, but that shouldn't matter.
Here's one list: http://thenextweb.com/dd/2015/06/12/20-best-javascript-chart-libraries/
Some highlights:
- Really nice timeseries plotting:

- Nice innovation for timeseries plotting to save vertical space:
