Tutorial: Other libraries

All of the examples on this site use the PHP library that I wrote. The library simply makes it easier to build the JSON file for the chart to use (as you have seen in the previous tutorials)

There are other libraries available that are written in other languages. But, for all of the libraries just open them up in your debugger and step through the code to see what is happening. All of them are very simple :-) They all have similar objects and methods, so it is very easy to translate the PHP examples into the language of your choice. So don't be put off if you don't use PHP. Just skim over the example code and try to make sense of what it is doing :-)
