Technical requirements

We will use similar tools to the ones we used in the previous chapter with one addition. We will be using Plotly Express as well as the graph_objects module for creating our charts. The packages to use are Plotly, Dash, Dash Core Component, Dash HTML Components, Dash Bootstrap Components, pandas, and the new dash_table package. You don't need to install this separately (although you can), as it is installed together with Dash when you install it.

The code files of this chapter can be found on GitHub at https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Interactive-Dashboards-and-Data-Apps-with-Plotly-and-Dash/tree/master/chapter_08.
