In pandas I can set the date as index, and then run df.plot() to see a line chart. How do I make that line chart stacked as in the picture below?

You can simply use

df.plot.area()

Found here after a quick google search.

  • $\begingroup$ Np. The keyword you may have left out was “area”, but honestly I’m not sure how I remembered that’s what these plots are called. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ Do you know how I would do if I would add a group D to that plot from python-graph-gallery, and group D should not be stacked i.e. just a regular line? $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ df.plot.area() returns the matplotlib axis object, just call ax.plot(my_data) $\endgroup$
