About Vega-Altair
The Vega-Altair open-source project is not affiliated with Altair Engineering, Inc. With Vega-Altair, you can spend more time understanding your data and its meaning. Altair’s API is simple, friendly and consistent and built on top of the powerful Vega-Lite visualization grammar. This elegant simplicity produces beautiful and effective visualizations with a minimal amount of code. The key idea is that you are declaring links between data columns and visual encoding channels, such as the x-axis, y-axis, color, etc. The rest of the plot details are handled automatically. Building on this declarative plotting idea, a surprising range of simple to sophisticated plots and visualizations can be created using relatively concise grammar.

Seaborn
Seaborn is a Python data visualization library based on matplotlib. It provides a high-level interface for drawing attractive and informative statistical graphics. For a brief introduction to the ideas behind the library, you can read the introductory notes or the paper. Visit the installation page to see how you can download the package and get started with it. You can browse the example gallery to see some of the things that you can do with seaborn, and then check out the tutorials or API reference to find out how. To see the code or report a bug, please visit the GitHub repository. General support questions are most at home on StackOverflow, which has a dedicated channel for seaborn.

Matplotlib
Matplotlib is a comprehensive library for creating static, animated, and interactive visualizations in Python. Matplotlib makes easy things easy and hard things possible. A large number of third party packages extend and build on Matplotlib functionality, including several higher-level plotting interfaces (seaborn, HoloViews, ggplot, ...), and a projection and mapping toolkit (Cartopy).

ggplot2
ggplot2 is a system for declaratively creating graphics, based on The Grammar of Graphics. You provide the data, tell ggplot2 how to map variables to aesthetics, what graphical primitives to use, and it takes care of the details. ggplot2 is now over 10 years old and is used by hundreds of thousands of people to make millions of plots. That means, by-and-large, ggplot2 itself changes relatively little. When we do make changes, they will be generally to add new functions or arguments rather than changing the behavior of existing functions, and if we do make changes to existing behavior we will do them for compelling reasons. If you are new to ggplot2 you are better off starting with a systematic introduction, rather than trying to learn from reading individual documentation pages.
