Plotters is a pure Rust drawing library focused on rendering figures, plots, and charts for both native and WebAssembly targets. It supports multiple backends including bitmaps, vector graphics, GUI windows (Piston, GTK/Cairo), and the web.
Use cases
- plot line charts and histograms in Rust
- render data plots to PNG or SVG files
- draw real-time charts in a desktop window
- display charts in a WebAssembly web app
- visualize scientific data from a Rust program
- embed plotting into a Jupyter notebook via evcxr
When to choose
- you need high-quality static or real-time plots in Rust
- you want the same plotting code to work natively and in the browser via WASM
- you need multiple output backends like bitmap, SVG, or GUI windows
When to avoid
- you need interactive dashboards or tooltips rather than rendered figures
- you are working in Python and prefer matplotlib-style tooling
- you need a console-based plotting backend out of the box
