It gets unwieldy when you're making a lot of plots and also you can't show all windows at once in a grid.

So it looks a bit nicer

Currently, if you click the dock icon, chromium won't think any windows are open and will try to open a blank browser window. This is because we are loading the chart in a popup window to avoid having a bunch of distracting page chrome.

As a current workaround, the library listens for any new page events and immediately closes the new page. This is a little annoying. It would be great if chromium had a command-line flag that would allow you to disable this behavior. I'll have to sort out how to make an issue on chromium... Any other suggestions welcome!

So that if you need to resize them for interactivity such as tooltips, you'll get whitespace on all sides.

It may be cleaner to use a custom Electron app instead of Playwright. Could use this as a model: https://github.com/stdlib-js/stdlib/blob/develop/lib/node_modules/%40stdlib/plot/ctor/lib/view/electron/index.js

The hard part will be implementing a structured clone process so that data is passed between the two processes without being serialized. This is particularly important for date fields.

It may end up not being worth it since Playwright is working fine.

Once this gets put into a release microsoft/playwright#19418

It would be interesting if you could add sliders and things to adjust x, y axes or things. I wonder if this could be done by loading up a svelte app

Tracking in microsoft/playwright#16598

And make sure it's being cleaned up.
