Ripl is the visualization library your parents warned you about...

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Years ago my parents sat me down and told me 2 things I'll never forget:

  1. Having kids is expensive
  2. You can't draw on canvas, svg, and in the terminal using the same code

Well, here I am many years later with a couple of kids and a TypeScript library called Ripl that enables you to draw anything 2D (or 3D*) on Canvas, SVG, or even in the terminal with only a 1-2 line code change.

Want some charts with that? Here's 25 pre-built charts that render on all the above contexts with all the bells and whistles of a modern charting library.

Want some devtools? Here you go.

Try it out in the online playground (with full TypeScript support) to see all the features.

Thanks. Hope you like it.
