Aynbody that has worked a fair bit with ChartJS want to give their opinions on it? What are the limitations?

Really? I can see no mention of Angular on that page you linked.

The link actually points to the library he used with angular, not to his own work. He probably used angular to create easier to use bindings to use Rickshaw.

This is correct. Sorry if that was confusingly worded. :)

This is great news, great timing and great work. I knocked together a simple angular directive for JustGage (https://github.com/mattlaver/angular-justgage) a week or so back for a dashboard I was putting together and have been looking for some nice directives for charting to add to what I already had.

Put together one of these for the jQuery Flot Chart lib:

Also shouted you out in the example for the inspiration to get off my butt and share it on GitHub.

Erik, Awesome. I used Chart.js because it's come up a lot lately and is well documented, but Flot and the other more mature chart libs are probably better for most charting projects (read, allow dynamic data updates). Will try your wrapper today. - Lindsay

Thanks - right now I put up the but soon will add the rest of the Flot library. I use Flot on a project dashboard and it does dynamic data updates nicely.

Also, I really like what you did by moving not just the data but parts of the chart setup itself - that is something I'll incorporate into Flang as well.

Thanks again.
