Hi HN, this project has been my life for the past few months, I hope some of you find it to be of use.

With MPLG you design plots, and when satisfied, export the Python code to further integrate into your existing data processing pipeline.

This is early stage software and naturally, there will be bugs and oversights. Nevertheless I wanted to share this with you to have a discussion about the value MPLG brings to the table. I would love to hear your constructive criticism.

There is a six month long free trial after which you can register with your student email address for a free license. But as MPLG is still in beta, there is no way to purchase a license.

Cheers,

Max

How about releasing the source? I know you want to sell licenses, but there are plenty of projects nowadays that dual-license so that e.g. commercial users pay, but others can still read/modify/compile the code.

(To be honest I didn't even know you could use GitHub to publicly serve a closed-source project.)

I very likely will. But that's just another thing to worry about and for my sanity I am deferring it. This is being developed alongside my study and two other jobs.

That's ambitious! Well the project looks cool, and I'd love to see it under a FOSS license. Much more important though is your health. I hope you're some kind of superhuman who can handle all that at once, but either way I think everyone's got to value their wellbeing over GitHub stars.

I wonder, have you considered Vega output? (https://vega.github.io/vega)
