A data value doesn't have to be identical with the value used for plotting purposes. Haven't used Apache Echarts but this separation of concerns is trivial in D3, for example.
- couchand 3y agoThis comment so beautifully distills the difference in philosophy between D3 and Echarts. Charting libraries like Echarts provide a few stock visualizations and a handful of knobs to turn. If there's not a knob for the parameter you wish to adjust, you're out of luck. D3 provides instead a visual grammar: a toolbox for building your own visualizations.
