### Overview
3737

38-
The `plotly.express` module (usually imported as `px`) contains functions that can create entire figures at once, and is referred to as Plotly Express (sometimes abbreviated in text as PX). Plotly Express is a built-in part of the `plotly` library, and is the recommended starting point for creating most common figures. Every Plotly Express function uses [graph objects](/python/graph_objects/) internally and returns a `plotly.graph_objects.Figure` instance. Throughout the `plotly` documentation, you will find the Plotly Express way of building figures at the top of any applicable page, followed by a section on how to use graph objects to build similar figures. Any figure created in a single function call with Plotly Express could be created using graph objects alone, but with between 5 and 100 times more code, such as this sunburst chart:

Plotly Express provides [more than 30 functions for creating different types of figures](https://plotly.com/python-api-reference/plotly.express.html). The API for these functions was carefully designed to be as consistent and easy to learn as possible, making it easy to switch from a scatter plot to a bar chart to a histogram to a sunburst chart throughout a data exploration session. *Scroll down for a gallery of Plotly Express plots, all made in a single function call.*
