# Are questions about how to make mathematical plots in Desmos on topic?

While there is a similar question about drawing diagrams, it was not clear to me from that post whether the software aspect of 'how to draw' something is considering being on topic.

While I can plot a lot of things comfortably using the Matplotlib, sometimes I find that Desmos is faster and easier. More relevant to when I would want ask a question on MSE is when I have a feeling that something should be easy and doable in Desmos, but a search engine or documentation don't give a direct or clear enough answer.

Is it appropriate to ask such questions as "How do I plot <thing> in Desmos such that <conditions>?"?

• Questions about math are on topic. But it sounds like your question is not. Apr 27 '20 at 9:28
• I had occasion to contact Demos's developers by email. The response was receptive but suggested a fairly limited resource set and "road map" for new features. Math.SE will hardly be able to better support their users than they can. Apr 27 '20 at 14:17
