Show HN: Vizzu – Open-source charting library focused on animating charts
They wrote a great paper explaining their "Unit Visualization" concept/approach: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/wp-content/uploads/...
IIRC their engine used to be their own in house WebGL code, but according to their GitHub ( https://github.com/Microsoft/SandDance) they are now using Deck.gl (https://deck.gl/) for rendering and Vega for chart logic. I do think it's not designed to be used as a library though but a complete studio like environment.

Page refresh (F5) on PowerBI report doesn't refresh visuals?
As you've noticed, this isn't very easy in Power BI. I used to maintain a Chrome autoclicker to attempt this back in the day, but I decided to replace it with a totally new app from the ground up called Displagent.

Why does Edge crash after keeping open a dashboard for several days?
Not too sure honestly, I'm not sure if it maybe needs a complete page refresh every so often or not. I actually used to maintain a Chrome extension to do this (https://github.com/DMiradakis/Power-BI-Real-Time-Slideshow), and I don't recall my users saying they had an issue like you're describing, but they were on Chrome vs. Edge - not that I would expect that to make a huge difference since Edge is Chromium-powered now... Sorry I can't provide more insight here!

Real-Time dashboard, working 24/7 in kiosk mode.
Background: I had the same need and was the maintainer of the forked Chrome extension Power BI Real-TimeSlideshow for several years. It was by far the best extension available for this kind of thing.

Unattended Displays
Interesting, thanks for the info. This is actually a need I've been contributing to via open source since 2018 (see https://github.com/DMiradakis/Power-BI-Real-Time-Slideshow) but I'm building something from the ground up that is way better. I think it'll be better than both the Chrome tab rotation and refresh extensions as well as the Windows 10 app in the Microsoft Store for a variety of reasons, but I wanted to collect some feedback from users here and see how many people have this need.

Displagent: Unattended Displays, Composable Slideshows, Dataset Refresh
I’m still in the building process, but in a nutshell, this application offers extremely composable slideshows for Power BI reports and a superior scheduling system for refreshing Power BI datasets. I think it absolutely beats any alternatives out there, including the Power BI helper app in the Windows store as well as my own forked Power BI Real-Time Slideshow Chrome extension that I built on GitHub!
