This tutorial covers the main recommendations to produce production-ready CMS plots and how to do it via the two CAT-promoted plotting tools: cmsstyle and mplhep. This tutorial is divided into three different notebooks:
- The first which covers recommendations and basics;
- The second which shows a ratio plot example;
- The third which shows a "Brazilian flag" limit plot example.

In case you want to run this tutorial in your own environment, the requirements are python3 and the following libraries:

- scipy
- uproot
- hist
Beware that you can pip install directly into modern (Python3-enabled) CMSSW releases using scram-venv!
