How to embed the plotting of ggplot into other software ?

[Jeff Zhang]

Just like RStudio can embed the plotting of ggplot to itself, I also want to embed that into other software, does anyone know how to do that ? What is the exact output of ggplot ? Thanks

Excel.link uses the image file export feature (so it takes the ggplot canvas and uses the normal png etc export command to pass it through to excel. Works surprisingly well). Plotly/htmlwidgets might be more what you want though, you could write a UI in javascript. If you want to know how the ggplot2 API works, you'd be best off looking at the documentation for the ggplot2 API. Here's a semi-decent article that goes over some stuff: https://www.data-imaginist.com/2017/beneath-the-canvas/
