Hi， wusheng & skywalking team， Glad to hear that your project is already using echarts. If meet any problem or have any feature request, please let us know. Thanks
I will update the proposal to add your project there. 在 2018/1/7 下午6:18， "吴晟 Sheng Wu" <wu.sh...@foxmail.com> 写入: >Hi, ECharts community team. > > >Glad your guys bringing the project to Apache.

We will highlight the >features below to >illustrate the power that ECharts already has, and our concerns and our >visions: > > * User Diversity: >ECharts expects that its users are not only web developers, but also >people with lesser programing skills. So ECharts enables users to >describe data and settings with declarative language, which lowers >the barrier but without losing the power, and benefit to transfer >and store. > > * Configurable Interactions: >ECharts has provided plenty of interactions and aims at providing more. >Both human interactions and the interactions with upper program are >supported and can be configurable. > > * Large Data: >Although the browser environment and JavaScript bring some performance >limits in visualizing large data or performing animations, ECharts have >been adopting various optimization techniques to rise the upper limit >of the amount of data that it can process, and keep improving the >fluency of interactions and animations. > > * Cross-Platform: >The underlying render engine of ECharts can be switched between >HTMLCanvas, SVG, or VML, which provides good compatibility and brings >opportunities to optimize performance according to different platform >and usage scenarios. Besides, ECharts can also works in backend >environment via headless techniques. > >ECharts can be created using headless browsers to pregenerate reports on >more powerful machines for better performance on resource-limited devices > > *Extension and Customization: >ECharts provides extension mechanisms to make new types of chart and >components, >adopt other layout algorithms, or even adopt other render techniques. >Various developers have contributed different types of extensions based >on ECharts.[2] > > >=== Current Status === > >ECharts has been an open source project on GitHub[3] since 2013. >Currently it has more than 20k stars, more than 50k monthly downloads[4] >in NPM, and is one of the most popular repositories in topic of data >visualization category in GitHub.[5] And it has been used in many >products of Baidu and other companies such as Alibaba, Tencent, Netease, >XinHua News Agency,National Bureau of Statistics of China, Sina, >State Grid Corporation of China, Lenovo, Ctrip etc. > > >=== Meritocracy === >The ECharts project already operates on meritocratic principles. >It was originally created by Lin Zhifeng in 2013,adding developers >worldwide and has accepted multiple major patches from a diverse set >of contributors. > >We will follow ASF meritocratic principles to encourage more >developers to contribute in this project. We know that only active and >committed developers from a diverse set of backgrounds can make ECharts >a successful project.
