Charting and Data Visualization Tools and Libraries For Web


Data is everywhere. It is very important to make sense of the data by “seeing” it. Visual clues make the data easier to understand and bring inspirations to people working or looking at them.

Around the web, there are plenty of visually appealing and interactive charting and data visualization tools/libraries available. Here is a collection of such tools and libraries. I try to make the list as exhaustive as possible so that people can benefit from it and decide objectively which tools or libraries suit their need. It is good to know what are available to choose better, right?
