Very nicely done! I am just about to choose a charting library and this will be a great help.

Have you considered adding some sort of user rating system? I find myself kind of just wanting to know which one is most popular or highest rated (i.e. take some of the work out of choosing between 30+ libraries myself).




IMO rating would be a difficult thing to do as there are many factors[1] to consider. What best for one use case, might be the worst choice for another. A more qualitative comparison would be more useful:

The things that people would most likely vote on are not really relevant. "I successfully made a simple chart based on the examples with this library" -> 5/5. If you need more than the examples, most people will have different backgrounds and requirements. What library they can best use depends on that.
