That is a very nice plot, thanks for sharing! 🙂 :juliaheartpulse_dark:

First feature request would be to sort the rows/columns by intersection size. That is convenient as explained in the Wikipedia page. Maybe an option `sort=true` that is enabled by default?

Also, I would try to rename the functions to make them more idiomatic for Julia users, e.g., without underscores. `upsetplot` would be preferred. The function `to_dataframe` is also suspicious for those of us programming in Julia for a long time.

As a final suggestion, consider making this a Makie.jl recipe instead, so that people can use the recipe with any backend, including interactive ones (e.g., GLMakie.jl):
