• hover labels
• animations
• line charts (.line)
• area charts (.area)
• timeline/ Gantt charts (.timeline)
• funnel charts (.funnel)

Part to Whole Charts -

• Comparing Graph Objects and Plotly Express

An example of code is given below -

fig = go.Figure()
fig.add_trace(go.Bar(x=, y=, name=, hovertemplate=))
fig.update_layout(legend_title_text = "")
fig.update_xaxes(title_text = "")
fig.update_yaxes(title_text = "")
fig.show()
