I'm writing a client side app. I want to use ClojureScript. I would like to generate vector graphics (graphics, charts, line graphs).
What should I read up on?
[The only hard requirement is ClojureScript -- (1) I like Clojure, and would like to do this entire app in Clojure (2) this needs to run in the browser]
Thanks!
Shameless plug: You can use C2, a Clojure/ClojureScript data visualization library. (Github here.) The core idea is the same as D3---mapping data to DOM elements---but since you have Clojure's more powerful semantics and data structures it ends up being much more composable than D3/JavaScript.
The docs could use some love, but if you're making traditional charts in SVG take a look at the axis and tick-generation helpers:
https://github.com/lynaghk/c2/blob/master/src/cljx/c2/svg.cljx
https://github.com/lynaghk/c2/blob/master/src/cljx/c2/ticks.cljx
While there isn't an official 0.1.0 release yet, we've used it at Keming Labs on several large web and iOS projects.
If you have a specific visualization that you're not sure how to approach, feel free to ping me @lynaghk or open up a Github issue.
