It was created in 2007 as a fork of QtiPlot and is conceptually similar to the commercial software Origin. SciDAVis runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux and is written mainly in C++ with Python support. It organizes data in spreadsheet-style tables or matrices and allows users to create a wide variety of 2D and 3D visualizations, including line, scatter, bar, pie, and surface plots.

Beyond plotting, SciDAVis includes tools for statistical analysis, FFT and filtering, convolution and deconvolution, and linear or nonlinear curve fitting using the GNU Scientific Library. Users can import data from ASCII files, enter data manually, calculate values using formulas, and use Python scripting for automation and more advanced analysis. Graphs can be exported to formats such as PDF, EPS, SVG, and common bitmap formats. Development has experienced periods of inactivity but later resumed, with version 2.9.2 listed as the stable release from April 2022.

It renders charts using the HTML5 element and supports eight main chart types, including bar, line, area, pie/doughnut, bubble, radar, polar-area, and scatter charts. Created by web developer Nick Downie in 2013, Chart.js is maintained by an open-source community and distributed under the MIT License. It has become one of the most popular JavaScript charting libraries, valued particularly for being relatively easy to learn and integrate into web applications. 

The library has evolved significantly through several major releases. Version 2 introduced features such as improved animations, time scales, bubble and scatter plots, and stacked charts; version 3 brought major performance improvements, scriptable configuration options, a redesigned animation system, and improved documentation. Version 4, released in 2022, moved the package toward modern JavaScript standards with ESM-only packaging. Compared with more powerful visualization libraries such as D3.js, Chart.js generally offers less fine-grained customization but provides a much simpler way to create attractive, responsive charts with relatively little code.

Summary

VisualPDE is an interactive web-based platform for exploring and simulating partial differential equations (PDEs) directly in a browser. It allows students, teachers, and researchers to visualize how mathematical models evolve over time and space by changing parameters, initial conditions, and boundary conditions interactively. Users can experiment with examples from physics, biology, and applied mathematics (such as heat flow, waves, chemical reactions, and population models), create their own simulations, and share them easily. VisualPDE is designed to make abstract concepts such as stability, pattern formation, and nonlinear dynamics easier to understand through visual experimentation rather than only equations. It is free, open-source, and useful for mathematics education, demonstrations, and research.

Summary

WinPlot is a free mathematical graphing program for Windows designed for visualizing functions, curves, and surfaces in 2D and 3D. It can plot explicit, parametric, implicit, polar, and other types of equations, animate graphs using parameters, and help students explore algebra, geometry, and calculus concepts visually.
Winplot is especially useful in education because it allows users to investigate functions, intersections, zeros, derivatives, integrals, differential equations, and geometric objects such as solids of revolution. Its small size, simplicity, and interactive approach make it a practical classroom tool for teachers and students who want to understand mathematics through visualization rather than only symbolic manipulation.

by Juan Carlos Ponce Campuzano

Summary

The Complex Function Plotter (HSV) is an interactive visualization tool for exploring complex-valued functions using domain coloring. Instead of representing a complex function (f(z)) with a normal 2D graph, it maps every point of the complex plane to a color: the hue (H) represents the argument/phase of the complex value, while saturation and value (S and V in the HSV color model) help represent magnitude and structure. 
By entering expressions such as polynomials, exponentials, logarithms, or trigonometric functions, users can observe zeros, poles, periodicity, and transformations of the complex plane through colorful patterns. The tool provides an intuitive way to study complex analysis concepts visually and reveals mathematical structures that are difficult to see with traditional graphs.

Summary

D3.js (Data-Driven Documents) is a free, open-source JavaScript library for creating dynamic, interactive, and highly customizable data visualizations on the web using standard technologies such as HTML, SVG, Canvas, and CSS. Developed by Mike Bostock and the D3 community, it enables developers to bind data directly to web page elements and create everything from simple charts to complex maps, network graphs, animations, and interactive dashboards. 

Unlike many charting libraries that provide predefined templates, D3 offers low-level building blocks—such as scales, axes, shapes, transitions, layouts, and interaction tools—giving users exceptional flexibility and control over how data is represented visually. As a result, D3 has become one of the most influential and widely used foundations for modern web-based data visualization and has inspired numerous higher-level visualization frameworks and tools.
