Visualize data using matplotlib & PyQtGraph and connect with external data sources to build live dashboards. Learn how to use threads and processes to manage long-running tasks and communicate with external services. Parse data and visualize the output in logs and progress bars.The book includes usability and architectural tips to help you build maintainable and usable PySide2 applications from the start.
