Ask HN: Which javascript charting library to use?

#1

Post by chrislawrence » Thu, Jul 04, 2013, 8:10 AM UTC

I am having trouble finding a javascript charting library that is basic (I just need bar charts), responsive and can be styled with CSS. The closest one I have found is CanvasJS (http://canvasjs.com/). I also like Morris, but it is not responsive.

Am I missing something or does this just not exist?

Google has a charts API also, which is easy to use.

I'd use dc.js, nvd3 or just d3.js

I have had good luck getting up and running using HighCharts.
