Is Plotly compatible with Pandas DataFrames?

Yes, Plotly Express is specifically optimized to work with Pandas DataFrames for quick and easy data mapping.

Can I export Plotly charts to static images using this skill?

Yes, by installing the 'kaleido' package, you can export visualizations to static formats like PNG, PDF, and SVG.

What types of charts can I create with this skill?

You can create over 40 types of charts, including basic (scatter, bar), statistical (histogram, box), scientific (heatmap, 3D), and financial (candlestick, funnel).

Does this skill support interactive dashboards?

Yes, the skill includes patterns for integrating Plotly charts into Dash, which is Plotly's framework for building interactive web applications.

What is the difference between Plotly Express and Graph Objects?

Plotly Express (px) is a high-level API for quick, standard visualizations with sensible defaults, while Graph Objects (go) provide low-level, fine-grained control for complex custom figures.
