## Built From consoletvs/charts and Why
Èrik Campobadal Forés created an awesome package for Laravel charts. Version 7.0 appeared to switch to a whole new chart library and it appears he will be primarily maintaining the 7.x branch. This is inspired by his 6.x version of the package and makes various adjustments including reducing it to only ChartJS support.
### Installation
Start a new Laravel project:
```php
composer create-project laravel/laravel your-project-name
```
Then run the following to add Grafite Charts
```php
composer require "grafite/charts"
```
