Hello,

      I create                d a

project for plotting nice Smith Charts with matplotlib. I followed the projection example. I put my code
into a git repo on github

                              :

I
wanted to ask, if there is any
inter est in
putting this
functionality into the main
library. If so, I would try to adapt my
code and make a
pull request ,
but it would be
wasted time, if no one is considering to
accept
it.

Those are some very nice looking plots there. Personally, I have never
heard of smith plots, and wouldn't know what the use case would be, but I
think we could definitely include most, if not all of it into mpl. At the
very least, the projection itself is quite interesting and might be cool to
add.

Those charts are super-good looking !
It’s been a few years since I had heard that name, but now I
remember a bit the few undergrad courses I got on HF electronics and
transmission lines.
For the inclusion, I feel it should, at the very least, be in the
gallery.
best,
