Enriching Data Visualizations with Annotations in Plotly

Session Type

Thunder talk: 10 minutes

Talk Description

Plotly is a versatile python graphing library which lets us make interactive graphs. In this talk, I will show how to go from a typical static visualization to one enriched with annotations which will convey to your audience a more complete interpretation of your visualization.

Here are some sample plotly visualizations I have made, and in this talk, I will share how to create them.
