dimple vs Matplotlib: What are the differences?

Developers describe dimple as "An object-oriented API for business analytics powered by D3". The aim of dimple is to open up the power and flexibility of d3 to analysts. It aims to give a gentle learning curve and minimal code to achieve something productive. It also exposes the d3 objects so you can pick them up and run to create some really cool stuff. On the other hand, Matplotlib is detailed as "A plotting library for the Python programming language". It is a Python 2D plotting library which produces publication quality figures in a variety of hardcopy formats and interactive environments across platforms. It can be used in Python scripts, the Python and IPython shells, the Jupyter notebook, web application servers, and four graphical user interface toolkits.

dimple and Matplotlib can be categorized as "Charting Libraries" tools.

dimple is an open source tool with 2.72K GitHub stars and 576 GitHub forks. Here's a link to dimple's open source repository on GitHub.
