SOCR HTML5 Charts

SOCR Project - HTML5 Version of SOCR Charts Project
Project goals
The goal of this project is to redesign, transform and upgrade the SOCR Charts Applets from Java to a modern platform- and browser-independent HTML5/JavaScript framework.
Project Description
- Review and play with the current SOCR Charts Java applets. Note that these provide default datasets, as well as allow the user to copy-paste data from any table into the data tab, map the variables (operation specific for each kind of chart that indicates which columns contain specific data that needs to be used in the plot/graph).
- Look at the SOCR Charts Activities, Help and About pages.
- Explore these two recent SOCR HTML5 webapps: MotionCharts and Randomization, Resampling and Simulation.
- Add the SOCR Violin Plot and extend it to allow plotting multiple columns (several violin plots on the same chart).
Approach
Consider using some of the following open-source HTML5/JQuery/JavaScript graphing libraries. These provide all the necessary charts, variable-mappings, animations, transitions, etc. You just need to figure out the Data I/O. Perhaps allow the user to drag-and-drop a URL containing tabular data (e.g., see SOCR_Data for examples). All code must be HTML5 compliant and only include lightweight open-source libraries.
