I want to love Chart Kit but it has some issues... #31

First of all, this is my favorite chart library by far. It looks great and the contributions chart is amazing. Unfortunately, I can't really imagine using this in a real setting. In trying to design an app for iOS and Android, I'm finding it really hard to work with. Specifically:

All in all, I think the root of the issue is that we don't have enough control over the chart. It feels a bit like putting an image into the app, it looks great but I can't customize it on any meaningful level and sadly that's a deal breaker.

Honestly, I will probably be spending the next few days addressing these issues and hopefully making pull requests, but I thought a discussion couldn't hurt, especially since I could be missing some less obvious features.

Well, I poked around and it's pretty trivial to make these adjustments, but I think a user friendly API would go a long way so I'll leave this open until the creator arrives.

Thank you for your kind words. Unfortunately I have very little time to work on this project. But I'm gladly merging PRs. So if you manage to improve API, please submit a PR.
