VegaFusion added support for #DuckDB, so you can plot charts directly in Altair without using pandas as an intermediary, here analysing 182 Million records of NY Taxi dataset, aggregated to 36000 data point. colab.research.google.com/drive/19V1xn6c…

🤯 everytime I think I've seen all of the uses of #vegalite params, I stumble across new ways of making interactive visualizations with them. Here, we create a 'click to order' stacked histogram– allowing you to compare categories on a common baseline #visualization

I recently blogged about this change and how you can plot larger datasets with serverside rendering here: rhosignal.com/posts/polars-a…

Solara is a new react-style framework for Python, now with support for interacting with Altair selections! Great to see more dashboard solutions support the Vega, Vega-Lite & Altair ecosystem!

Excited to release this new project on scalable interactive visualization - spanning the web, notebooks, and servers - in collaboration with Dominik Moritz of CMU Data Interaction Group. Big thanks to DuckDB, ApacheArrow, Observable Plot, and others for the tools that made it possible!

Feels so natural to see past interaction states and be able to branch off of them for analyses. Great job @kbgadhave Zach Cutler and @alexander_lex!
