As per Seaborn’s official website, they state,

“If matplotlib “tries to make easy things easy and hard things possible”, seaborn tries to make a well-defined set of hard things easy too”

So we can say seaborn is an amazing python data visualization library built on top of the matplotlib.

Why one should you Seaborn instead of matplotlib?

• Seaborn comes with a large number of high-level interfaces and customized themes where matplotlib lacks as it’s not easy to figure out the settings that makes plots attractive.
• Matplotlib functions don’t work well with dataframes, whereas seaborn does.

Installation:

To install the latest release of seaborn, you can use pip.

pip install seaborn

You can also use conda to install the latest version of seaborn
