• Direct dependence on Matplotlib only

• Many plotting styles with similar method names to those in Matplotlib

• No need for ternary-to-Cartesian conversions on the user side

• Automatic positioning of tick markers, tick labels, and axis labels consistent with Matplotlib

• tight_layout and constrained_layout

• Easy combination with normal Matplotlib plots

• Easy application of style sheets
