+Plotly for plots

+----------------

+Kwant can now use the `Plotly <https://plot.ly/>`_ library when plotting,

+though matplotlib is still used by default. Using plotly empowers Kwant

+to produce high-quality interactive plots, as well as true 3D support:

+    :hide-code:

+    import kwant.plotter

+    syst = kwant.Builder()

+        x, y, z = r

+        return -2 <= z < 2 and 10**2 < x**2 + y**2 < 20**2

 Automatic addition of Peierls phase terms to Builders

 Kwant 1.4 introduced `kwant.physics.magnetic_gauge` for computing Peierls
