Chart.js is back online
Congrats on being able to open source this and thank you for doing so.<p>Honest question: Is animation really a needed feature for this? The opening animation adds no information value and has the negative effect of making the user think the graphics are actually interactive. I'm sure the animation itself isn't memory/processor intensive but it seems like a really unnecessary feature for a charting library that creates very beautiful, static graphs.<p>edit: OK everyone, I'm not an idiot: <i>of course</i> you should use animated graphs when showing things to the suits...that's the number one rule of graphic design, I believe :).<p>I only questioned it here because the OP's focus seems to be on a fairly clean and minimalist library, and the one-time startup animations seems to go against that aesthetic. But no doubt, they do liven up the page.
