RGraph is an HTML5 software library for charting written in native JavaScript. It was created in 2008. RGraph started as an easy-to-use commercial tool based on HTML5 canvas only. It's currently freely available to use under the open-source GPL license and supports more than 50 chart types in both SVG and canvas.[2][3]
License
[edit]RGraph is dual licensed using the open source GNU General Public License 2.0 and commercial.
Mentions
[edit]In July 2014, Salesforce made RGraph available to be plugged into the reporting and dashboard tools on its mobile platform. RGraph is among six third-party visualization tools available inside the dashboards, together with Google Charts, D3.js, CanvasJS, Chart.js, and Highcharts.[4]
In a book "Android Cookbook: Problems and Solutions for Android Developers," RGraph is recommended as an alternative to creating Android charts in pure Java.[5]
