Hi Fernando, It would be really great if galry could be integrated in the notebook indeed. Is the code of this demo available somewhere, so that I can get an idea about how this integration works? In theory, galry should be compatible with WebGL because one of the main components of galry is a sh

OK so it seems that integrating any efficient OpenGL rendering code in matplotlib as a backend is much more complicated than what I thought. > I'm guessing with galry, you push the user-coordinates to the graphics > card, then as the user is interacting, you're changing the transforms > and re-ren

Yep, I'm still developing some OpenGL technics to provide both nice and fast rendering and I hope to be able to help the writing of a GL backend for matplotlib next summer (provided we get a GSoC student for the project). So far, my main concern is that for efficient rendering using OpenGL, yo
