2.3The Team

pgfplots has been written mainly by Christian Feuersänger with many improvements of Pascal Wolkotte and Nick Papior Andersen as a spare time project. We hope it is useful and provides valuable plots.

If you are interested in writing something but don’t know how, consider reading the auxiliary manual TeX-programming-notes.pdf which comes with pgfplots. It is far from complete, but maybe it is a good starting point (at least for more literature).
