Plotly.js can be used to produce dozens of chart types and visualizations, including statistical charts, 3D graphs, scientific charts, SVG and tile maps, financial charts and more.

The `newPlot` method is then used to draw an interactive figure as described by `data` and `layout` into the desired `div` here named `gd`. As demonstrated in the example above, basic knowledge of HTML and [JSON](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON) syntax is enough to get started, i.e., with or without JavaScript! To learn and build more with plotly.js, please visit the [plotly.js documentation](https://plotly.com/javascript). ``` Plotly.newPlot("gd", /* JSON object */ { "data": [{ "y": [1, 2, 3] }], "layout": { "width": 600, "height": 400} }) ``` Alternatively, you may consider using [native ES6 import](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Modules) in the script tag. ``` import "https://cdn.plot.ly/plotly-3.4.0.min.js" Plotly.newPlot("gd", [{ y: [1, 2, 3] }]) ``` Fastly supports Plotly.js with free CDN service. Read more at . ### Un-minified versions are also available on CDN [](#un-minified-versions-are-also-available-on-cdn) While non-minified source files may contain characters outside UTF-8, it is recommended that you specify the `charset` when loading those bundles. ``` ``` > Please note that as of v2 the "plotly-latest" outputs (e.g. ) will no longer be updated on the CDN, and will stay at the last v1 patch v1.58.5. Therefore, to use the CDN with plotly.js v2 and higher, you must specify an exact plotly.js version. ### MathJax [](#mathjax) You can load either version two or version three of MathJax files. For example: ``` ``` ``` ``` > When using MathJax version 3, it is also possible to use `chtml` output on the other parts of the page in addition to `svg` output for the plotly graph. Please refer to `devtools/test_dashboard/index-mathjax3chtml.html` to see an example. ### Need to have several WebGL graphs on a page? [](#need-to-have-several-webgl-graphs-on-a-page) You may simply load the [virtual-webgl](https://github.com/greggman/virtual-webgl) script for WebGL 1 (not WebGL 2) before loading other scripts. ``` ``` Bundles ------- [](#bundles) There are two kinds of plotly.js bundles: 1. Complete and partial official bundles that are distributed to `npm` and the `CDN`, described in [the dist README](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/blob/master/dist/README.md). 2. Custom bundles you can create yourself to optimize the size of the bundle depending on your needs. Please visit [CUSTOM\_BUNDLE](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/blob/master/CUSTOM_BUNDLE.md) for more information. --- Alternative ways to load and build plotly.js -------------------------------------------- [](#alternative-ways-to-load-and-build-plotlyjs) If your library needs to bundle or directly load [plotly.js/lib/index.js](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/blob/master/lib/index.js) or parts of its modules similar to [index-basic](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/blob/master/lib/index-basic.js) in some other way than via an official or a custom bundle, or in case you want to tweak the default build configurations, then please visit [`BUILDING.md`](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/blob/master/BUILDING.md). --- Documentation ------------- [](#documentation) Official plotly.js documentation is hosted at . These pages are generated by the Plotly [graphing-library-docs repo](https://github.com/plotly/graphing-library-docs) built with [Jekyll](https://jekyllrb.com/) and publicly hosted on GitHub Pages. For more info about contributing to Plotly documentation, please read through [contributing guidelines](https://github.com/plotly/graphing-library-docs/blob/master/README.md). --- Bugs and feature requests ------------------------- [](#bugs-and-feature-requests) Have a bug or a feature request? Please [open a Github issue](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/issues/new) keeping in mind the [issue guidelines](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/blob/master/.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md).
