Choropleth Map with Regional Coloring in Python, R, Julia and JavaScript

Source code in 14 libraries — Python: Altair, Bokeh, lets-plot, Matplotlib, Plotly, plotnine, Pygal, Seaborn; R: ggplot2; Julia: Makie.jl; JavaScript: Chart.js, D3.js, Apache ECharts, Highcharts.

A choropleth map visualizes data by shading geographic regions (countries, states, or counties) according to a measured variable. This technique is ideal for showing regional patterns and spatial distributions, making it easy to identify areas with high or low values at a glance. The color intensity represents the data magnitude, creating an intuitive way to understand geographic variation.
