RGraph is a software library for charting written in native JavaScript. It was created by English programmer Richard Heyes in 2008. RGraph started as an easy-to-use commercial tool based on HTML5 canvas only. Currently it is free, available under the open-source MIT license, and supporting more than 50 chart types in both SVG and canvas.[1][2][3][4]

In July 2014, Salesforce made RGraph available to be plugged into the reporting and dashboard tools on its mobile platform Salesforce1 among six third-party visualization tools, together with Google Charts, D3.js, CanvasJS, Chart.js, and HighCharts.[5]

In Ian F. Darwin's book "Android Cookbook: Problems and Solutions for Android Developers," RGraph is recommended as an alternative to creating Android charts in pure Java.[6]
