This thread seems to be about _curved_ arrows, while the linked one on Plots is about _straight_ arrows.  
If you just want straight lines with arrows, they are already available in [[ANN] MakieExtra.jl – more recipes and tools for Makie plots](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/ann-rfc-makieextra-jl-more-recipes-and-tools-for-makie-plots/118618) as `arrowlines()`:

Even with different arrowhead styles (:
