The official Widgets Development Guide only contains the most basic widget types as example.

There is no functional example for a Flot chart in there right now. Or is it?

Since this is one of the most useful and probably used (at leat to me) widgets it would be very helpful to extend that document by a Flot chart example - may it be very basic.

I am thinking of a Flot chart where the points are connected in different manner between last and current points (little bit like in state chart, but that is not documented too):
0) have logarithmic y-axis or even logarithmic x-axis

  1. first draw the vertical y(0)->y(1), then the horizontal line x(0)->x(1)
  2. first draw the horizontal line x(0)->x(1), then the vertical y(0)->y(1)
  3. maybe filling below/above the line with a color gradient
  4. introduce some limit/threshold lines
    etc. pp.

If this was left out from the documentation because of some weird marketing strategy then please clearly state that somewhere. If so the usefulness of the community version is crippled by intention. Why should the community provide decent input that, at last, improves profits made by the paid version? This left me a little puzzled.

Bump form me - we need a sample of integrating charts.js line chart or apexcharts would be ideal - flot charts at this point start to look pretty dated...
