This document discusses the development process behind a popular JavaScript charting framework. It describes how the framework was designed with a flexible, plugin-based architecture to support evolving customer needs during the transition from Flash to HTML5. Key aspects included an event-driven core that supported standardized inheritance and interfaces to allow modular development. The code examples show how new modules can be added while maintaining a consistent API through an extension method. Maintaining coding standards, documentation, and a linting process from the start is advised for frameworks developed by multiple engineers.
