This looks interesting, but what are the advantages of this over Vega, which is free? https://github.com/trifacta/vega https://github.com/trifacta/vega

- oscilloscope 13y agoIt's hard to evaluate when the projects are so new. It was a similar problem with Crossfilter/Datavore/Data.js/Miso Dataset when they all came out. If I had to pick, I'd go with Vega because I think it has the most potential to develop a community around it. Especially as a bridge between Python/R and D3.js through JSON. Think iPython notebooks, R Shiny, etc.
- HarshaThota 13y agoPerhaps this is not the right place but can you expand on the Crossfilter/Datavore/Data.js/Miso Dataset comment?
- oscilloscope 13y agoThey are all libraries for managing datasets with fast or convenient filtering. Useful for linking visualizations together through a common data model. None have become as popular as d3.js though, so it's still hard to compare them.
- xuexue 13y agoThe interaction model is something that very few charting libraries have. Also we try to make Polychart.js very easy to get started in, so that creating a simple line or bar chart would take minimal amount of code. Vega is amazing as well for how flexible it is.
