Fastplotlib: GPU-accelerated, fast, and interactive plotting library

Seems like a nice library, but I have a hard time seeing myself using it over plotly. The plotly express API is just so simple and easy. For example, here's the docs for the histogram plot: https://plotly.com/python/histograms/

This code gives you a fully interactive, and performant, histogram plot:

```python

import plotly.express as px df = px.data.tips() fig = px.histogram(df, x="total_bill") fig.show()

```

Different use cases :) Plot doesn't give the performance and interactive tools required for many neuroscience visualizations. We also focus more on the primitive graphics and, at least not yet, on the more complex "composite" graphics built with primitives like histograms.
