Description: prettyplotlib
        =============
        
        Python matplotlib-enhancer library which painlessly creates beautiful
        default ``matplotlib`` plots. Inspired by `Edward
        Tufte <http://www.edwardtufte.com/tufte/>`__'s work on information
        design and `Cynthia Brewer <http://www.personal.psu.edu/cab38/>`__'s
        work on `color perception <http://colorbrewer2.org/>`__.
        
        I truly believe that scientific progress is impeded when improper data
        visualizations are used. I spent a lot of time tweaking my figures to
        make them more understandable, and realized the scientific world could
        be a better place if the default parameters for plotting libraries
        followed recent advances in information design research. And thus
        ``prettyplotlib`` was born.
        
        Requirements:
        
        -  `matplotlib <http://matplotlib.org/>`__. Can be installed via
           ``pip install matplotlib`` or ``easy_install matplotlib``
        -  `brewer2mpl <https://github.com/jiffyclub/brewer2mpl>`__. Can be
           installed via ``pip install brewer2mpl`` or
           ``easy_install brewer2mpl``
        
        Comparison to ``matplotlib``
