## What is Vizro?

<p align="left">
<font size="+1">
Rapidly self-serve the assembly of customized dashboards in minutes - without the need for advanced coding or design experience - to create flexible and scalable, Python enabled data visualization applications
Vizro is an open-source Python-based toolkit.

Use it to build beautiful and powerful data visualization apps quickly and easily,
without needing advanced engineering or visual design expertise.

Then customize and deploy your app to production at scale.

<img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mckinsey/vizro/main/.github/images/infographic.svg" width="800"/>
</p>

Use a few lines of simple configuration to create complex dashboards, which are automatically assembled utilizing libraries such as [**Plotly**](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.py) and [**Dash**](https://github.com/plotly/dash), with inbuilt coding and design best practices

Define high level categories within the configuration, including:
Visit ["How-to guides"](https://vizro.readthedocs.io/en/stable/pages/user-guides/install/) for a more detailed explanation of Vizro features.

- **components:** create charts, tables, input/output interfaces, and more
- **controls**: create filters, parameter inputs, and custom action controllers
- **pages, layouts and navigation**: create multiple pages, with customizable layouts and flexible navigation across them
- **actions and interactions**: create interactions between charts, and use pre-defined or customized actions (such as exporting)
## Why use Vizro?

Configuration can be written in multiple formats including **Pydantic models**, **JSON**, **YAML** or **Python dictionaries** for added flexibility of implementation
Vizro helps you to build data visualisation apps that are:

Optional high-code extensions allow almost infinite customization in a modular way, combining the best of low-code and high-code - for flexible and scalable, Python enabled data visualization applications
**Quick and easy**

(Visit the ["Why Vizro"](https://vizro.readthedocs.io/en/latest/pages/explanation/why_vizro/) section to see a more detailed explanation of Vizro use cases)
Build apps in minutes. Use a few lines of simple configuration (via Pydantic models, JSON, YAML, or Python dictionaries) in place of thousands of lines of code.

## Key benefits of Vizro
**Beautiful and powerful**

<br/>
Build high-quality multi-page apps without needing advanced engineering or visual design expertise. Use powerful features of production-grade BI tools, with in-built visual design best practices.

**Flexible**

## Vizro examples gallery
Benefit from the capabilities and flexibility of open-source packages. Use the trusted dependencies of Plotly, Dash, and Pydantic.

You can see Vizro in action by clicking on the following image or by visiting [the examples gallery at vizro.mckinsey.com](https://vizro.mckinsey.com).

</a>
**Customizable**

## Visual vocabulary
Almost infinite control for advanced users. Use Python, JavaScript, HTML and CSS code extensions.

Our visual vocabulary dashboard helps you to select and create various types of charts. It helps you decide when to use each chart type, and offers sample Python code to create these charts with [Plotly](https://plotly.com/python/) and embed them into a Vizro dashboard.
