These are scatter plots which are categorical (or singular) in the x-axis, where the markers are nudged so that each marker is visible and avoids overlap. + +The main entry point to the package is the [`beeswarm`](@ref) recipe, which takes the same arguments as Makie's `scatter` plots, and transforms them into a beautiful beeswarm plot! + +It's a regular Makie recipe, so you can use it with any tool that supports Makie.
