mpltern: Ternary plots with Matplotlib¶
Mpltern (https://yuzie007.github.io/mpltern) is a Python plotting library based
on Matplotlib specifically designed
for ternary plots.
Mpltern is implemented as a new projection for Matplotlib, with introducing
e.g. new Transform classes for ternary plots.
The followings are the features of mpltern when compared with other
ternary-plot libraries:
Many things one expects essentially possible using Matplotlib can be done also in mpltern, without e.g. ternary-to-Cartesian conversions on the user side
For the same plotting styles, mpltern offers the same or very similar method names as Matplotlib does; you do not need to learn many new commands in addition to those for Matplotlib
Tick markers, tick labels, and axis labels are automatically positioned with reasonable paddings inherited from Matplotlib; this allows users e.g. faster production of ternary plots with publication quality
tight_layoutandconstrained_layoutEasy combination with normal Matplotlib plots
Easy application of seaborn styles
Working also in Matplotlib interactive modes inside e.g. Jupyter notebooks
