Show HN: Embedded our open-source charting lib into a no-code storytelling tool (vizzu.io)

Hi HN,

We're a small team working on a new dataviz engine and its applications. We built our charting engine in C++ and run it on WebAssembly. Two years ago, we launched Vizzu as an open-source animated data visualization library aimed at JS developers, allowing users to create dynamic charts. We also released a Python wrapper under the name ipyvizzu for data scientists.

Since then, we've been working hard to make this technology accessible to everyone, regardless of their coding skills. Today, we're proud to introduce our no-code storytelling tool. With this tool, anyone can turn their static data into dynamic, interactive presentations.

What Vizzu Does:

- Easy Chart Creation — Simply select your data and get chart suggestions.

- Interactive Exploration — Identify relationships, trends, and outliers by visually exploring your data.

- Data Story Presentation — Create a sequence of slides with animated transitions.

Unlike other data visualization tools, Vizzu automatically animates chart transitions, making presentations more engaging and easier to understand. The focus on storytelling and ease of use sets it apart.

Try It Out: You can try Vizzu right away by signing up at https://vizzu.io. We'd love to hear your feedback and suggestions!
