visualization grammar

Visualization grammar refers to the set of rules and components used to create effective data visualizations. It includes elements like data types, visual marks (bars, lines, points), and how attributes (color, size, position) are combined to communicate insights clearly. Think of it as a language that guides how to arrange and style visual elements so viewers can easily interpret patterns, relationships, or trends in the data. Essentially, it helps ensure that visualizations are both accurate and understandable by consistently applying design principles aligned with the data's message.
