Integrating Python Matplotlib Heatmap into a JavaScript Application


I am currently working with a medical company that is transitioning from MATLAB to JavaScript for our software solutions. As part of this process, we are looking to integrate heatmap visualizations similar to what we had in MATLAB.

like the heatmap shown in the attached image. I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to incorporate a Matplotlib heatmap into our new JavaScript application. Is there an approach or a tool that allows embedding or converting these Matplotlib heatmaps for use in a JavaScript environment?

Attached is an example of the heatmap we're working with, generated in Python using Matplotlib.

Solution

  • You could probably resort to something like MPLD3. Alternatively, you could try Plotly JavaScript library.
