Technical requirements
Technically, no new packages will be used in this chapter, but as a major module of Plotly, we can consider Plotly Express to be a new one. We will also be extensively using pandas for data preparation, reshaping, and general manipulation. This will mainly be done in JupyterLab. Our dataset will consist of the files in the data folder in the root of the repository.
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_04.
Check out the following video to see the Code in Action at https://bit.ly/3suvKi4.
Let's start by exploring the different formats in which we can have data, and what we can do about it.
