Rails Charts Using ECharts from Apache

Any clear reason to use this over chartkick?
tylerritchie•5mo ago
if one wants additional chart types, this is a decent option

README: “The idea of this gem was inspired by Chartkick gem which is great and allows you to build charts very quickly. It works best in cooperation with groupdate gem. Unfortunatelly it's missing many needed types of charts or other customization options.”

moistoreos•5mo ago
