About the addon

• It only implements the network module, because all other charts provided by vis.js are already captured by Vaadin Charts.
• The vis.js library is developed by Almende B.V, as part of CHAP. Vis.js runs fine on Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Safari, IE9+, and most mobile browsers (with full touch support).
• Visit http://visjs.org/docs/network/index.html for the documentation on visjs.
• Visit http://visjs.org/network_examples.html for network examples in JS. Not everything is possible with this addon.
• Visit https://github.com/watho/visjs-example for a simple vaadin example.
