Installation

Install via npm:

npm install vizzu

Or use it from CDN:

<script type="module">
import Vizzu from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/vizzu@latest/dist/vizzu.min.js';
</script>

Usage

Create a placeholder element that will contain the rendered chart:

<div id="myVizzu" style="width:800px; height:480px;"></div>

Create a simple bar chart:

import Vizzu from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/vizzu@latest/dist/vizzu.min.js';

let data = {
  series: [
    { name: 'Foo', values: ['Alice', 'Bob', 'Ted'] },
    { name: 'Bar', values: [15, 32, 12] },
    { name: 'Baz', values: [5, 3, 2] }
  ]
};

let chart = new Vizzu('myVizzu', { data });
chart.animate({
  x: 'Foo',
  y: 'Bar'
});

Then turn it into a scatter plot:

chart.animate({
  color: 'Foo',
  x: 'Baz', 
  geometry: 'circle' 
});

Try it!
