+go-chart
+========
+
+Package `chart` is a very simple golang native charting library that supports timeseries and continuous
+line charts. 
+
+# Installation
+
+To install `chart` run the following:
+
+```bash
+> go get -u github.com/wcharczuk/go-chart
+```
+
+Most of the components are interchangeable so feel free to crib whatever you want. 
+
+# Usage 
+
+ ![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wcharczuk/go-chart/master/images/goog_ltm.png)
+
+
+The chart code to produce the above is as follows:
+
+```go
+// note this assumes that xvalues and yvalues
+// have been pulled from a pricing service.
+graph := chart.Chart{
+    Width:  1024,
+    Height: 400,
+    Axes: chart.Style{
+        Show:        true,
+    },
+    FinalValueLabel: chart.Style{
+        Show: true,
+    },
+    Series: []chart.Series{
+        chart.TimeSeries{
+            XValues: xvalues,
+            YValues: yvalues,
+        },
+    },
+}
+graph.Render(chart.PNG, buffer) //thats it!
+```
+
+The Key areas to note are that we have to explicitly turn on two features, the axes and the last value label.
+
+# Design Philosophy
+
+I wanted to make a charting library that used only native golang, that could be stood up on a server (i.e. it had built in fonts).
+
+The goal with the API itself is to have the "zero value be useful", and to require the user to not code more than they absolutely needed.
+
+# Contributions
+
+This library is super early but contributions are welcome.
