+Built on top of [plotly.js](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js), `plotly.py` is a high-level, declarative charting library. plotly.js ships with over 30 chart types, including scientific charts, 3D graphs, statistical charts, SVG maps, financial charts, and more. Plotly graphs are interactive by default and can be viewed in Jupyter notebooks, standalone HTML files, or hosted online on [plot.ly](https://plot.ly).
