Bokeh is a Python library for creating interactive data visualizations, plots, and dashboards that render in modern web browsers without writing JavaScript. It supports standalone HTML output, Jupyter notebook embedding, and Python-backed server applications with live callbacks.
Use cases
- create interactive charts from python
- build dashboards in python
- plot data in jupyter notebooks
- visualize large or streaming datasets in the browser
- embed interactive plots in a web page
- make choropleth maps from python
- add python callbacks to web visualizations
When to choose
- you want interactive, browser-based plots from Python without JavaScript
- you need dashboards or data apps with Python callbacks via Bokeh server or ASGI integration
- you work in Jupyter and want inline interactive visualizations
- you need to handle large or streaming datasets with pan, zoom, and hover tools
When to avoid
- you only need quick static charts for a report (matplotlib or seaborn may be simpler)
- you need publication-quality print figures rather than web interactivity
- you want a full-featured web application framework beyond data apps
