Shield UI, a Europe-based private company, has just launched an advanced JavaScript library for creating various types of charts and graphs. Their first commercial framework, called Shield UI Chart, is the first of a line of data visualization components, suitable for developers who want to embed powerful graphics in their web projects with minimum effort. The charting library is built on top of the latest HTML5 and CSS3 technologies, and is available as a jQuery plugin, making it extremely easy to use and maintain. Supporting legacy and modern desktop web browsers, as well as the latest mobile web browsers, Shield UI’s charts run on all devices and platforms. Compared with other popular charting libraries, Shield UI is very similar in terms of its functionality and interface, which makes it very intuitive and easy to understand to any developer using it for the first time. The library supports many types of charts: area, bar, line, range, column, pie and others. What makes it unique, are the rich customization options that allow developers to build eye-catching graphs, bringing the desired look and feel to any web project. From simple things like changing the appearance, to complex scenarios involving Internationalization or processing client events, Shield UI provides extensive tailoring abilities to developers. Another major advantage of the Shield UI Chart component is its competitive price, making it one of the most affordable offerings on the market. More information can be found in the purchasing section on the company’s website. The component license is based on a yearly subscription that includes access to the latest product versions as well as 24/7 support directly from the product developers. The company also offers custom pricing for volume licenses, depending on the size of your team, and flexible support packages based on the response time. The short-term goals of Shield UI, listed on their website, include the development of a wide range of server-side wrappers leveraging the use of their JavaScript charting library in different programming languages and frameworks. By using those server-side components, developers will be able to build modern HTML5 apps that contain powerful graphics, without hand-coding a single line of JavaScript. Anyone interested in testing and evaluating the Shield UI Chart can download a trial version of the component from the company’s website – www.shieldui.com. A good starting point for all audiences would be the demos section, displaying a rich variety of examples and the full source code used to run each example. Another location would be the documentation section, where one can find different tutorials, explanation topics and the complete API reference. JavaScript Chart by Shield UI
