# Graphing

Graphing in Mito is designed to help you build intuition about your data and create presentation-ready graphs to communicate insights. Mito creates interactive and customizable graphs using the [Plotly Express](https://plotly.com/python/plotly-express/) open source graphing library.

Like everything in Mito, when you create a graph, Mito generates the equivalent Python code so have complete control of your analysis.
