Vega – A declarative language for interactive visualization designs


Vega - A Visualization Grammar. Vega is a visualization grammar, a declarative format for creating, saving, and sharing interactive visualization designs. With Vega, you can describe the visual appearance and interactive behavior of a visualization in a JSON format, and generate web-based views using Canvas or SVG.

A Vega specification defines an interactive visualization in a JSON format. Specifications are parsed by Vega’s JavaScript runtime to generate both static images or interactive web-based views. To rapidly create common statistical graphics, check out Vega-Lite, a higher-level language built on top of Vega.
