    Deneb is a custom visual for Microsoft Power BI, which allows developers to use the declarative JSON syntax of the Vega or Vega-Lite languages to create their own data visualizations.

  • Deneb is open source, so if you have ideas or want to contribute, here's the GitHub repo

  • vega

    A visualization grammar.

  • As such, I've been obsessed with the Vega and Vega-Lite languages for a long time. These use JSON rather than full-blown code, and allow you to build a visual from the ground-up using a grammar of graphics, much like ggplot2 in R or Altair in Python (which is actually an implementation of Vega/Vega-Lite).

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
