Muze is a composable data visualization library for the web that enables developers to create highly interactive and exploratory charts using a data-first design philosophy. Built around a layered Grammar of Graphics approach, it allows users to define visualizations declaratively by mapping data attributes to visual components such as axes, colors, and shapes. The library emphasizes composability, meaning multiple layers and interactions can be combined to produce complex, multi-dimensional visualizations similar to those found in advanced analytics tools like Tableau. It includes an in-browser data model that manages transformations, filtering, and interactions, serving as a central source of truth for all visual elements. Muze also automatically generates cross-chart interactions, allowing multiple visualizations to respond to user input in a coordinated way. By leveraging WebAssembly for data processing, it achieves high performance even with large datasets.
