Summary
In this chapter, we have learned how to use Julia using different development environments, which will come in handy when developing interactive visualizations. We also learned how to install Julia packages, allowing us to access the Julia ecosystem's power. We also managed project environments to ensure the reproducibility of our projects through time and across computers. We have seen the most basic types and operations that you will need when creating plots in Julia. Finally, we have learned how to make some basic plots using the Plots
package.
In the next chapter, we will learn more about the Julia ecosystem for data visualization. In particular, we will be going more into more depth about the Plots
package to learn about its backends, and we will also explore Makie.
