Welcome to the Julia community!
- Plots/GR are separate from Compose.jl
- Compose has 3 graphical backends (svg, pdf/png, and tikz/pgf)
- Compose has a
drawfunction e.g.draw(PNG(), drawing) - Compose doesn’t need any
displayfunctions of it’s own (typically other packages that define “plottable objects” write their own display functions e.g. that callCompose.draw). See e.g. the Gadfly display functions - see more Julia discourse examples here and here
