dygraphs is a fast, flexible open source JavaScript charting library.

It allows users to explore and interpret dense data sets. Here's how it works:

This JavaScript…
new Dygraph(div, "ny-vs-sf.txt", {
  legend: 'always',
  title: 'NYC vs. SF',
  showRoller: true,
  rollPeriod: 14,
  customBars: true,
  ylabel: 'Temperature (F)',
});
… makes this chart!

The chart is interactive: you can mouse over to highlight individual values. You can click and drag to zoom. Double-clicking will zoom you back out. Shift-drag will pan. You can change the number and hit enter to adjust the averaging period.

Features

  • Handles huge data sets: dygraphs plots millions of points without getting bogged down.
  • Interactive out of the box: zoom, pan and mouseover are on by default.
  • Strong support for error bars / confidence intervals.
  • Highly customizable: using options and custom callbacks, you can make dygraphs do almost anything.
  • dygraphs is works in all recent browsers. You can even pinch to zoom on mobile/tablet devices!
  • There's an active community developing and supporting dygraphs.

and use it via:
import Dygraph from 'dygraphs';
// or: const Dygraph = require('dygraphs');
const g = new Dygraph(div, data, {});
