A pure-Python graphics library for PyQt5/PyQt6/PySide6

Copyright 2025 PyQtGraph developers

<https://www.pyqtgraph.org>

PyQtGraph is intended for use in mathematics / scientific / engineering applications.
Despite being written entirely in python, the library is fast due to its
heavy leverage of numpy for number crunching, Qt's GraphicsView framework for
2D display, and OpenGL for 3D display.

Requirements
------------

PyQtGraph has adopted [SPEC 0](https://scientific-python.org/specs/spec-0000/).

This project supports:

* Python versions released within the last 3 years
* NumPy, SciPy and matplotlib versions released within the last 2 years
* Qt5 5.15 or Qt6 6.8+

Currently this means:

* Python 3.12+
* Qt 5.15 or 6.8+
* [PyQt5](https://www.riverbankcomputing.com/software/pyqt/),
  [PyQt6](https://www.riverbankcomputing.com/software/pyqt/), or
  [PySide6](https://wiki.qt.io/Qt_for_Python)
* [`numpy`](https://github.com/numpy/numpy) 2.0+
