Functional Description

Sparklificator’s name comes from adding sparklines to a textual document. It is a general open-source jQuery library that eases the process of integrating wordscale visualizations into HTML documents. Sparklificator provides a range of options for adjusting the position (on top, to the right, as an overlay), size, and spacing of vizualisations within the text. The library includes default visualizations, including small line charts and bar charts, and can also be used to integrate custom word-scale visualizations created using webbased visualization toolkits such as D3.
