## What it is
rCharts is an R package for creating, customizing, and publishing interactive JavaScript visualizations from R using a lattice-style formula plotting interface. It wraps multiple JS charting libraries such as Polychart, Morris, NVD3, and xCharts.

## Use cases
- create interactive charts from R data frames
- plot faceted scatterplots and bar charts with a formula interface
- embed interactive JavaScript visualizations in R reports
- use NVD3 or Morris charts without writing JavaScript
- publish interactive visualizations from R

## When to choose
- you work in R and want interactive charts with a lattice-like formula interface
- you want to wrap multiple JS charting libraries behind one R API

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained package with recent updates
- you are not using R
- you need modern charting features or active community support

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: abandoned
- function: data-visualization, charts
- domain: data-visualization, data-science
- platform: python
- tags: r, javascript-charts, interactive-visualization, d3, lattice-style
