    Attaching a meaning to a large amount of data is challenging without adequate tools. Textual outputs are known to be limited in their expressiveness and support for interaction.

    Roassal is an agile visualization engine made to visualize and interact with arbitrary data, defined in terms of objects and their relationships. Roassal is commonly employed to produce interactive visualizations and its range of applications is diverse. For example, the Moose community uses Roassal to visualize software.

    This chapter introduces Roassal’s principles and describes its expressive API to quickly render your data. At the end of the chapter, you will be able to create interactive and visual representations.

    The development of Roassal has been sponsored by ESUG.org. For more information, please visit the Roassal website:
