DatasetError: Dataset 'MatplotlibWriter' not found in 'matplotlib'. Make sure the dataset name is correct.
Hint: If you are trying to use a dataset from `kedro-datasets`, make sure that the package is installed in your current environment. You can do so by running `pip install kedro-datasets` or `pip
install kedro-datasets[<dataset-group>]` to install `kedro-datasets` along with related dependencies for the specific dataset group.
