Mills College Uses AnyChart JS Charts for Student Success Data Visualization
April 29th, 2020 by AnyChart Team
Myriads of enterprise-level software developers rely on our award-winning JavaScript data visualization library to build comprehensive reporting and analytics applications. However, AnyChart is also widely chosen to operate basic charts. One example of such a use case is a visualization of student success metrics at Mills College, a famous American higher education institution attended at different times by filmmaker Sofia Coppola, musician Dave Brubeck, and Congresswoman Barbara Lee among other great people.
We interviewed Angelique Felgentreff from Mills College to get you first-hand information about their experience using charts powered by AnyChart. (Stack: OmniUpdate OU Campus/PHP.)

1918 Spanish Flu Pandemic in Data and Charts — DataViz Weekly
April 17th, 2020 by AnyChart Team
While the world keeps fighting the coronavirus disease outbreak, we have seen a number of attempts to draw analogies between the COVID-19 and previous influenza pandemics. Inspired by a recent National Geographic article by Nina Strochlic with graphics from Riley D. Champine, today we invite you to find out (or remember) what the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic looked like and what lessons it may offer to cope with the current crisis.
For this new DataViz Weekly, we have curated four researches on the 1918 flu pandemic in the United States. Focusing on an analysis of nonpharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) such as social distancing measures and their role, these studies contain a lot of diverse data and charts. They are worth checking out if you’re interested in the subject of epidemics or in data science, analytics, and visualizations as such.
