    Not sure I follow, that page indicates that JS support is pretty good for all but the more obscure features (e.g. decimals) and doesn't mention data visualization at all? Anyhow, I've successfully used https://github.com/vega/vega-loader-arrow for in-browser plots before, and Observable has a fair few notebooks showing how to use the JS API (e.g. https://observablehq.com/@theneuralbit/introduction-to-apach...)
