β¨ DESCRIPTION β¨
okay so Graphs is a simple, yet powerful tool that lets you plot and manipulate your data with ease β and when they say "with ease," they mean it, no cap π«Ά New data can be imported from a wide variety of filetypes, or generated by equation (yes, generated, by an actual equation, main character energy fr fr).
and then?? all that data can be manipulated using a variety of operations, such as the ability to select, cut, translate, multiply, center and smoothen data β like a full glow-up routine for your dataset π β as well as apply any custom transformations on the data. any. custom. transformations. you're the stylist, the data is the client, go off π
moreover (yes i said moreover, i contain multitudes), Graphs supports curve fitting on imported data and offers extensive customization options for the style of the plots. you can fine-tune and personalize stylesheets to your liking, which is giving "i have a vision and i will not be stopped" π¨
Graphs is an excellent fit for both plotting and data manipulation. the plots created with Graphs can be saved in a variety of formats suitable for sharing and presenting to a wide audience β think a scientific publication or presentations, iykyk πβ¨ Additionally, the option to save plots as vector images allows for easy editing in software like Inkscape for further refinement (yes, you can keep tweaking after, the plot is never truly finished, that's the point π§). Graphs is written with the GNOME environment in mind, but should be suitable for any other desktop environment as well β so no gatekeeping, we love inclusivity π
