Victory: Component request: Heat map

[LoicUV]

Hello! As I need a heat map type of chart for a project, I was wondering if some work had already been done regarding this, and if not try to implement it.

We can discuss the requirements here.

Here's a concrete example of how it would look in my project:

If it's useful, I recently implemented a color heat map in my own library, feel free to borrow code:

https://github.com/spotify/reactochart/blob/0.2.1/src/ColorHeatmap.js

(it's still a rough draft, needs to handle categorical axes better)

Super useful. Thanks @dandelany

any news about that?

Yes! this is the next big thing I'm planning to work on. It will build on the histogram feature we released recently

Notes: This component will be basically a 2d histogram, and this work will involve updates / improvements to VictortyHistogram. Work will also involve enhancement of the colorScale prop or the addition of a new colorBy prop to support heatmap coloring. Work is in progress, but interested parties should reach out with API opinions.
