We need a datavis library to handle our visualizations. D3 is heavy and has a learning curve, but looks the most familiar and best-supported? Open to suggestion.

@ernieatlyd: I always liked NVD3, which is basically easier-to-use, opinionated D3.js charts

@ernieatlyd: Have you already put a static analysis in front of the users by chance? (Not a loaded question, but I’ve found this to avoid much effort)

Related: #80. @phiden, if you're not working on this yet I can try installing a library you feel comfortable with. Any preferences just yet?
