Plotting using Glyphs

Glyphs are the fundamental building blocks of Bokeh and are used to create a wide variety of plots. In fact, every single plot that you build while working with Bokeh has a glyph mechanism attached to it, such as lines, rectangles, circles, and any other object that makes up the plot.

In this chapter, you will learn about the following topics:

• What glyphs are
• How you can plot with glyphs
• How to create scatter plots using glyphs
• How you can customize glyphs
