"Week 2: Another JS library."

The first library that I choose was Chart.js. I liked it, but the documentation was not as good as Highcharts. Moreover, things like adding labels were really complicated. So I decided to move into Zingchart.

At the very beginning, working with Zingchart was tricky. It's not that different from Highcharts, but it required me to understand how to set up the chart. I feel that Highcharts is more flexible and intuitive, although, I must say, I’m more use now to this library, after working in this homework.

On the other hand, Highcharts documentation is friendlier, and quite intuitive, with its tree structure. Another postive aspect, It's pretty easy to find a lot of information about Highcharts through Google, specially in starckoverflow.
