This looks good... probably nice to have integrated with dbt like this. I have to dig in a bit more to what is possible in https://docs.dbtcharts.com/charts/extensibility/ and https://docs.dbtcharts.com/charts/interactions/ so far, and how feasible it is to actually use the end result in a customised website. Also similar: https://github.com/microsoft/flint-chart This is also likely to compete with features already provided by the warehouse such as https://docs.databricks.com/aws/en/dashboards/manage/visuali...

Thanks a lot for the suggestion, I do think we will need to work on accessibility support in Flint, this is a perfect place to centrally handle accessibility issues. I added an issue to track this https://github.com/microsoft/flint-chart/issues/48

We will link it on github and the project page! https://github.com/microsoft/flint-chart

A little bit more than that! Here shows why a higher-level abstraction can be helpful for chart generation: https://github.com/microsoft/flint-chart#features

This is fun! We started thinking it would just be an engineering task in the beginning, but doing a solid intermediate language turned out to be a research project (the paper will be out soon). Also, I find NTChart very fun, maybe we should add NT chart to the list of compilation backend for Flint so it works in the library. Putting a reminder here: https://github.com/microsoft/flint-chart/issues/45
