JavaScript InfoVis Toolkit vs. JsPHP vs. PowerShell vs. SpreadJS Comparison Chart

The JavaScript InfoVis Toolkit provides tools for creating interactive data visualizations for the web. The best way to start is to take a look at the demos page. Each demo has a See the Example Code link that takes you to the code for that example. The actual library code is included in the HTML file by building the lib each time with only the needed requirements taken from the name of the visualization and the build.json file. The required library code is built by the build.py file. In order to create a new visualization you need to set up the server environment to include test JavaScript files for your new visualization and also you need to add the new visualization files into the Source folder.

PowerShell is a cross-platform task automation and configuration management framework, consisting of a command-line shell and scripting language. Unlike most shells, which accept and return text, PowerShell is built on top of the .NET Common Language Runtime (CLR), and accepts and returns .NET objects. This fundamental change brings entirely new tools and methods for automation. Unlike traditional command-line interfaces, PowerShell cmdlets are designed to deal with objects. An object is structured information that is more than just the string of characters appearing on the screen. Command output always carries extra information that you can use if you need it. If you've used text-processing tools to process data in the past, you'll find that they behave differently when used in PowerShell. In most cases, you don't need text-processing tools to extract specific information. You directly access portions of the data using standard PowerShell object syntax.
