In our prototype frontend, we used NVD3.js to provide the charts. I honestly didn't like it very much, and I think we could either find some better charts or come up with our own.

NVD3 was decided on by me when the project first started and I was trying to lead the attempt at graphs. It's a shell over regular D3, which is way more powerful. Because we have people that know JS better on the team now, I think we should look into D3 or other graphing libraries.

Contribution distirbution amounts will simply be visualized as histograms. After talking to @enactdev, I think we're going to shoot for implementing heat maps to visualize inside/outside donors. If we're getting close to game day, and we haven't had enough time yet to materialize that, we can fall back on using pie charts for the time being.
