Polar Scatter Plot in Python, R, Julia and JavaScript

Source code in 15 libraries — Python: Altair, Bokeh, lets-plot, Matplotlib, Plotly, plotnine, Pygal, Seaborn; R: ggplot2; Julia: Makie.jl; JavaScript: Chart.js, D3.js, Apache ECharts, Highcharts, MUI X Charts.

A scatter plot displayed in polar coordinates where data points are positioned using angle (theta) and radius (r) rather than Cartesian x and y coordinates. This visualization is particularly effective for cyclical or directional data where the angular component carries meaningful information.
