Plotbuilder adaptation for jamovi – necessary or possible?

JASP has introduced Plotbuilder (beta) by Mátyás Bukva. The plots look impressive. Is this functionality already available in existing jamovi modules? If not, would it be feasible to adapt the JASP module and release it as a jamovi module?

Dear sbalci
I have installed your modules: jsurvival, clinicopathdescriptives and meddecide.
There are so many modules with so many features, maybe I have missed any further modules that you have released.
where do I find the tidyplots package in above mentioned modules?
They look really impressive:

Thank you in advance for your help.

itdyplots is still work in progress. I am still trying it. I am not sure if it will be feasible.

jamovi 2.7 has the plots tab, which makes a number of plots available.
this might be preferable to a "plot builder".

I agree that plots feature is very useful. And enough for most cases.
Will there be syntax view and will we be able to add ggplot layers on that syntax generated plot?

vijPlots module also adds many options to jamovi builtin plots

yes, vijPlots are indeed very nice and useful. With native jamovi plots they cover most analysis.

ravi is working on the generation of ggplot code for each analysis.
you might need to elaborate on what you mean by ggplot layers.

Foe example I get the code as
ggplot(data, aes(x, y, label = rownames(data)))
and want to add another text, or legend
p + geom_text()
If this works, then it will be very useful.
