Data Formulator is a Microsoft Research prototype that makes exploring data with AI-powered visualizations easy and interactive. It works with data in virtually any format—screenshots, text, CSV, or databases—and offers a unique blended interface combining traditional UI interactions with natural language inputs. This allows analysts to express their ideas, guide exploration paths, and create shareable reports.

You can try Data Formulator in several ways:
- Install via uv (recommended) – If you have the fast Python package manager uv, just run `uvx data_formulator`. Use `uvx data_formulator --help` for more options.
- Install via pip – In a virtual environment, run `pip install data_formulator` and then `python -m data_formulator` to launch it at http://localhost:5567.
- Run with Docker – Use `docker compose up --build` and open http://localhost:5567. Stop with Ctrl+C or `docker compose down`.
- Codespaces – Launch in a pre-configured environment by following CODESPACES.md.
- Developer mode – Build locally and customize your own version using instructions in DEVELOPMENT.md.
