Love the simplicity and magic of this!

The games are fun. We played it with our team, and it does bring a few laughs out (we did have the zoom on, by side).
Are you folks launching more games?

Indeed. Vega has been one of our inspirations. Though, we took a more business use-case focussed approach for the visualizations, and also more focus on performance.

Here's an example of using Muze with React: https://codepen.io/chartshq/pen/jOqELZR

Thanks for the reporting this. We are working on it. It seems that this issue exist for a particular chrome version. We'll fix it soon.

Yes, that's the idea. You include Muze, provide the data, and it automatically renders the visualization and interactions.
P.S. We're coming up with a react binding for Muze in next 4-5 weeks.

In the JS version (MIT), we're currently doing bug fixes only. Hence, we've marked it as deprecated.
The new features are in WASM repo, which will be open source later.

Yes, these are available by default.

We started with the JavaScript version of Muze, which is open-source (MIT). Hence the .org. For the WASM version also, we'll open-source (just not right now - waiting to build a few more modules, to monetize the enterprise ones, to bring sustainability into the project).

Yes, we'll make it open-source, but not right away.
We're working on building some more modules (of which we'll monetize some of the enterprise ones, to bring sustainability into the project). Post that, we'll be releasing this as Open-source.

Hi,
The JS version is open-source and MIT (https://github.com/chartshq/muze-deprecated)
The WebAssembly version is free (but not open source, yet!)

Hi everyone,
A while ago, we had released a Tableau-like data visualization library in JavaScript (original post at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18193264). We got the feedback that it was performing slow because of client-side data operations and rendering. As such, we have released a new version, where all data related operations are now powered by WebAssembly, along with a full design upgrade. It’s at https://muzejs.org - we would love to get your feedback.
Like before, it’s a data-first library with its own DataModel, built using Grammar of Graphics approach. Unlike traditional charting libraries, which use a chart-first configuration, Muze allows relational algebra operations on DataModel (in browser). Also, the visualizations are fully extendible through compositions, layers and programmatic hooks - so you’re not restricted by the out-of-box visualizations or default interactions provided by the library.
We’ve also built a visual data exploration tool using this (though currently using the JS version, and not WebAssembly; to be upgraded soon), which is at https://explore.charts.com
We intend to make these libraries (and UI kits/bindings) available for developers to embed within their SaaS/internal applications and create Tableau-like interfaces within their application (of which we’ll monetize enterprise-features modules).
Would love to get your feedback. Also, what is the next library/module that we should build next to make Muze more useful for you?
Thanks for taking a look!
P.S. We’re working on making our documentation better!
