A software engineer with 2.5 years of experience of working on open-source software and B2B web technologies, and a passion for creating developer-friendly APIs. I'm best known for my work in the ERPNext ecosystem, and as the author of the well-received Frappe Charts.

We gave it too less data than it deserved I believe.

Thanks for reporting the click problem. Would you mind creating an issue at GitHub, so that we can keep track?

The argument would be no different from all the products out there who design their own UI (MUX, GitHub). Our framework Frappé (and product ERPNext) has a great emphasis on minimal style, and we really wished the charts to be free of visual clutter (not have too many measure markings for instance). Something that even the customizing API should take care off. Chartjs is awesome and very comprehensive, it just didn't go too well with our look and feel :)

Update: https://www.npmjs.com/package/frappe-charts

We used cal-heatmap (https://github.com/wa0x6e/cal-heatmap) earlier. It's pretty neat.

Check our take on why they weren't a priority for us, and we went with percentage charts (the 'Why percentage?' link on the website): http://www.storytellingwithdata.com/blog/2011/07/death-to-pi...

Thanks! That just about answers the burning question: why another charting library? It all boiled down to us needing some simple charts for our report data; nothing fancy, just something that went with our classic design. All we needed was some mappers to translate numbers to relatively sized shapes (or positions). The graphs over at GitHub looked awesome to start the styles from; from there on we focussed on making them generic.

> Is responsiveness a priority with this library?

It sure is. Just pushed a fix, thanks for reporting :) Do report any issues you find over at https://github.com/frappe/charts/issues

We look forward to adding those (just created an issue). They are quite decoupled as of now, so shouldn't be much trouble.

Supported across all major browsers :) We've covered much ground on the most used charts (while the heatmap just happened to be something we needed) and have the basic components down. That'll facilitate putting in, say, more axis charts in future. We're sure of not running out of ideas, there are just so many chart types out there :D
