Welcome to Artist’s documentation!

Artist is a 2D plotting library for Python. It’s main focus is the output. Artist creates a LaTeX file which can be included in your paper or thesis. The code needs TikZ and PGFPlots to compile and your plots will tightly integrate with your main text. Artist provides an easy-to-use and clean Python interface and can compile your plot on-the-fly as a stand-alone PDF file.

A pdf containing some examples can be downloaded here: Demo plots (pdf).
