## Welcome!

mpl_interactions' library provides helpful ways to interact with [Matplotlib](https://matplotlib.org/) plots. Full narrative documentation and example can be found on [Read the Docs](https://mpl-interactions.readthedocs.io).

## Installation

```bash
pip install mpl_interactions["jupyter"] # will install necessary deps for using in jupyter

# for use only outside of jupyter:
pip install mpl_interactions
```

If you use JupyterLab, make sure you follow the full instructions in the ipympl [readme](https://github.com/matplotlib/ipympl#install-the-jupyterlab-extension) in particular installing jupyterlab-manager.

## Contributing / feature requests / roadmap

I use the GitHub [issues](https://github.com/mpl-extensions/mpl-interactions/issues) to keep track of ideas I have, so looking through those should serve as a roadmap of sorts. For the most part I add to the library when I create a function that is useful for the science I am doing. If you create something that seems useful a PR would be most welcome so we can share it easily with more people. I'm also open to feature requests if you have an idea.

## Documentation

The fuller narrative documentation can be found on [ReadTheDocs](https://mpl-interactions.readthedocs.io/en/latest/). You may also find it helpful to check out the [examples directory](docs/examples).
