Hi,
I am new to Linux (I installed Arch btw /s).
I was wondering if you know any packages for displaying data visualizations on Linux Desktop where wallpaper is (overlaid on top of wallpaper or displayed instead of wallpaper).
Some kind of intermediary layer that I could use to create sets of custom visualizations of graphs, charts, raw data, etc. that I would pull from public APIs or data scrape. These visualizations would be generated on desktop and they would be interactive: graphs/charts/tables would be able to able to update in real time based on incoming data.
Since python has tons of data visualization libraries (and easy API support), maybe there is an efficient way to turn desktop/wallpaper into a sort of a Jupyter Notebook output without too much of a performance hit?
Is there a framework or package that streamlines this use case?
It would be nice for creating real-time C&C setups on desktop. Sort of turning desktop/wallpaper into a flexible custom Bloomberg terminal, but not just for finance data -- anything, whatever I would code the logic for (e.g., in Python).
As a bonus, it would be nice if the renders of the visualizations could be highly customizable (like, for example, generating a graph and being able to set its own and its background transparency, color of the whole thing, positioning, etc.)
KDE Plasma would be my primary platform of interest, but if something like that exist for a different DE or WM, I am all ears.
Thanks!
