Makie.jl

Hi! Welcome to Makie, a high-performance, extendable, and multi-platform plotting package for Julia.

Installation & tutorial

Install Makie by running ]add Makie (in the REPL) or Pkg.add("Makie").

If installing the master branch, be sure to also add AbstractPlotting#master and GLMakie#master

See the Tutorial for how to plot, or the Example Gallery below for examples.

The Ecosystem

What makes up the Makie Ecosystem? Makie.jl is the metapackage for a rich ecosystem, which consists of GLMakie.jl, CairoMakie.jl and WGLMakie.jl (the backends); AbstractPlotting.jl (the bulk of the package); and StatsMakie.jl (statistical plotting support, as in StatsPlots.jl).

There are also a number of packages that are being built to extend and enable more customizability within Makie. While these are not part of Makie currently, if you are looking to go a little deeper into what is possible, it is worth looking into them: MakieThemes.jl

Getting Help

If you run into any issues or have questions that you cannot solve on your own by using the help mode in the REPL, here are your options:

1. Open an issue in this repo or the main Makie.jl repo.
2. Join the Julia Slack and look for the #makie channel.
