##Cufflinks

(This is a Python 3 compatible version of Cufflinks modified by Thalesians)

This library binds the power of plotly with the flexibility of pandas for easy plotting.

This library is available on https://github.com/santosjorge/cufflinks

This tutorial assumes that the plotly user credentials have already been configured as stated on the getting started guide.
