Is Plot usable in Observable Notebooks 2.0?

[espinielli]

Just wondering whether Plot would be usable in Frameworks 2.0...I haven't seen any use case in the example gallery (I went thru 10 or so examples...)

I think Plot makes it easier to deal with data visualization than pure (but much more powerful) D3...getting data analysts to digest D3 is tough...

I guess you mean Notebooks 2.0 here? But, yeah, my experiments seem to work pretty much as I'd expect. Plot, FileAttachments, Inputs all seem to work well.

Ooops, yes Notebooks 2.0, sorry.
Thanks for the reply

Yes, you can still use any browser-compatible JavaScript library in notebooks, and Plot is still part of the standard library — it’s available by default.

We’ve actually prepared quite a few Plot examples already for Notebooks 2.0, we just didn’t put them in the gallery (yet):
