It is free to use as long as it is for non-monetised project,
i pointed to this library because it is present in npm, you can add it with CDN,
a full documentation is available plus you have the support and it is widely used by a lot of other projects even in bitcointalk. it is just objects, and requires a minimal amount functions unless you want to do some bright effects.
I work for an ERP based company project for banks.WE deal with charts,graphs,dashboards everyday.Pretty obvious
that we use such libraries on daily basis.We only use open source stuff and trust me,the options d3.js or velocity has to offer
can pretty much get you all you can get from a paid project.
However,it's a personal opinion.Smiley

I had a look at d3.js, but it looks like tricky on some points, however i never had a deep look into it, do you have a fiddle ?
For Velocity, i never heard about, do you have a fiddle ?
Sorry if i disturb you, but i am curious.

I advise you to use highcharts, it is easy to use, they have a forum where they actively support users, the graphs can be highly customised and you have several options.
Because it's a paid product!I don't support the entire idea of taking something which comes free of cost,modifiying it and selling it for way more than it should be.Open-Source does the same for way cheap and it takes brains obvious.Anyhow,OP found what was he looking for.

Hey Rico,it really depends on how detailed you want your graph to be.As well fancy I might add.To start with,it actually depends on your js coding skills.There are a lot of liblaries ranging from newbie friendly graphs to organizational charts.I have used the following and they are mostly used around.

1.Jquery based easy API :  http://www.flotcharts.org/
2.D3.Js ,cool stuff here : https://d3js.org/
3.Velocity Js : http://velocityjs.org/

If you just want it to be functional without much UI details,go with the first option.

Thanks for the pointers, but I went with Graph.js in the end. It's really simple what I need:

Hi,

I'd like to provide some nice graphs on the LBC stats page - for starters a graph with the pool performance for the past ... say month.
Ideally I'd like to use some nifty ready-made JS package and give it a set of numbers and it would display some nice visually appealing graph.
I am aware of 1-2 JS packages doing this, but wanted to hear your suggestions/input.
