NZGrapher has been developed by Jake Wills, a maths teacher in New Zealand specifically for supporting the teaching of the NCEA Statistics Standards. The idea behind NZGrapher was to be able to run on any device, without an install. NZGrapher was developed to run on anything with a browser, computers, iPads, ChromeBooks, Microsoft Surface, Android, even Phones.

🎓 Why is this code public?

NZGrapher is a commercial product, but I believe in the power of curiosity. This repository exists so that New Zealand students and educators can:

  • Peek under the hood: See how a real-world data visualization tool is constructed.
  • Learn by example: Understand how we handle datasets, statistical calculations, and graphing logic.
  • Experiment: Run a local copy to test out new features or ideas for school projects (like NCEA Computer Science internals).

⚖️ License & Legal

Because NZGrapher is a commercial business that sustains its own development, this repository is Source-Available, not "Open Source" (like MIT or GPL).
