Box Plot Maker workflow

Box Plot Maker is for comparing distributions by group. It works with score distribution, class spread, and outlier review, adds quartiles, IQR outlier rules, and grouped comparison, and keeps the preview, checks, and exports tied to the data you entered.

From input to export

  1. Start with the scores sample or paste your own CSV, Excel data.
  2. Load a sample that resembles your data shape.
  3. Review detected fields and recommendations before export.
  4. Export Box plot, Outlier notes after the checks explain any remaining context or readability issues.

When to use

  • Use Box Plot Maker when you need to compare medians, ranges, and outliers.
  • It is a good fit for comparing distributions by group.
  • It works best when your data resembles score distribution, class spread, and outlier review.

When not to use

  • Do not use this workflow for small samples under five values.
  • Do not publish the result until title, unit, source, and export size have been reviewed.
  • Use another chart preview when the recommendations explain a better fit.

Controls that matter

  • Map fields before reading the chart.
  • Choose a chart type from the preview controls.
  • Add title and source context before export.

Input and method

  • The parser normalizes rows into a browser-side table and never requires an account.
  • Field detection classifies score distribution, class spread, and outlier review into number, date, category, or text fields.
  • The renderer calculates min, quartiles, median, and max from the selected numeric field.
  • The score combines data readiness, field mapping, chart fit, labels, accessibility, and box plot export readiness.

Checks before export

  • Using Box Plot Maker with data that is better suited to small samples under five values.
  • Exporting before adding a clear title, unit, or source note.
  • Ignoring the page limit: this workflow is not intended for small samples under five values.
  • Treating the score as approval instead of reviewing the specific fixes.

Export options

  • PNG and SVG exports use the current box plot preview and selected size.
  • Markdown and mini report exports include title, source note, detected fields, score, and fixes.
  • HTML, JSON config, clean CSV, and alt text are available from the secondary export panel when data is valid.

Output limits

  • Very large datasets should be summarized before using this browser-side tool.
  • Avoid this workflow for small samples under five values.
  • Image-only chart recognition, cloud storage, and collaborative editing are not part of this version.
  • Generated summaries should be reviewed before publication.
