http://tinychart.co/dist/browser-bundle-d447cd2a4a298091b268... I don't really know how this can be considered "tiny" at all. Dependencies on react, brace and another charting library ( http://www.chartjs.org/ ) seems a little much.

Chartjs already is too much. Even with d3 could not be called tiny, just small xD

Does anyone know of a (free) JS graph library that allows for data at irregular intervals? I'm looking for something like this, but with a more permissive license: http://www.highcharts.com/demo/spline-irregular-time

If I may propose my own solution [0]. It has no dependencies and is quite interactive for analysis (regression, measurements, and predictions). However not very customisable and lacks a good method for handling date/time data.

If you're in the market for "simple" solutions like this, do yourself a favor and spend one afternoon with d3.js.

Maybe http://metricsgraphicsjs.org/ could help you with this.

This is my first project in React.js and it was really nice to work with.

The only part I struggled with was while building the table editor. I'm using contentEditable there and apparently React doesn't play well with it. The virtual DOM gets out of sync after user input and you have to manage it manually.

I really enjoyed making this and I'm happy to hear any feedback about ways to improve it! :)
