What does HackerNews think of roughViz?
Reusable JavaScript library for creating sketchy/hand-drawn styled charts in the browser.
Language:
JavaScript
#3
in
Data visualization
It's what mathematicians[0] and programmers[1] refers to as a graph. Traditionally you would use http://graphviz.org/ and its many derivatives, which meets your long-term-stable criteria. These days if you want clicky web GUI you can use a bunch of javascript-ports, eg. https://sketchviz.com/new or https://github.com/jwilber/roughViz ... avoid valuing presentation over content, though.

Do also check out the other cool roughjs creations (https://github.com/rough-stuff), such as annotations (rough-notation: https://github.com/rough-stuff/rough-notation) and html elements (wired-elements: https://github.com/rough-stuff/wired-elements).
Shameless plug: I also created a dataviz library that uses roughjs under-the-hood: https://github.com/jwilber/roughViz
Nice! Reminds me of rough.js stuff:
