I was able to resolve the issue following this WillKoehrsen/Data-Analysis#36 with sudo apt install graphviz for Ubuntu 20.04

Fatima is having the same issue rn, we're trying to troubleshoot with Mac

@bennaaym can you let me know if you had to install graphviz separately as well?

[dtemir]

brew install graphviz this helped to Fatima

[Aymen B.]

@dtemir Beside graphviz python package. Graphviz also need to be installed separately (https://graphviz.org/download/)
