Hexagons is an expressive Plotting framework, built on top of Python's Matplotlib.
It allows the user to draw and plot a whole grid of hexagons to various specifications, and to decorate
them using a high-level syntax.
An assortment of Hexagon Images rendered using this framework can be found here
There are over two dozen Example Jupyter notebooks in which the usage of the hexagons framework is shown.
Hexagons documentation on Github.
Needs Matplotlib and Python >=3.5. And then just clone this repository (which has the *.py files) that are to be included.
cd <directory you cloned>
edit a <script.py>
In April of 2020, in the midst of worldwide pandemic, I (Ram) started dabbling with generating geometric art using Matplotlib, using a regular grid of hexagons as the basis. For that, I created a set of helper functions for repetitive tasks.
The project grew and grew and then I ended up adding Example Jupyter notebooks and Documentation. There are over 20 stand-alone notebooks that can be run to generate various images with a large number of parameters specified.
Sometimes, the variations from one image to the next are small. But when viewed with the help of an animated GIF, the changes can be seen.
