Plotly.NET.Interactive

Display Plotly.NET charts directly in .NET Interactive notebooks, including Polyglot Notebooks. This package registers an HTML formatter for chart values, so charts appear inline with zooming, panning, and hover information.

Installation and quick start

Run this in an F# notebook cell:

#r "nuget: Plotly.NET.Interactive, 6.0.0"

Referencing the package loads the formatter automatically and installs the core Plotly.NET dependency. In the next F# cell, create a chart and leave it as the final expression:

open Plotly.NET

Chart.Point(
    x = [ 0; 1; 2; 3 ],
    y = [ 1; 4; 9; 16 ]
)
|> Chart.withTitle "Squares"

The notebook displays the chart below the cell. Chart.show opens a separate browser window; it is unnecessary for inline output. The formatter loads plotly.js from the Plotly CDN, so the notebook browser needs access to that CDN.

Compatibility

Version 6.0.0 targets netstandard2.1 and requires a compatible .NET Interactive host. It depends on Plotly.NET >= 6.0.0 and < 7.0.0, and is built against Microsoft.DotNet.Interactive and Microsoft.DotNet.Interactive.Formatting version 1.0.0-beta.26120.1. The package does not target .NET Framework.

For the C# chart API, also reference Plotly.NET.CSharp 0.14.0. That package requires a .NET 10 C# kernel. End a C# cell with the chart value to use the same formatter.
