App for viewing visualizations created in Vega or Vega-Lite. We are not always keeping the versions of Vega and Vega-Lite up to date. Please use the Vega-Editor to work with the latest versions.

Download from GitHub releases.

To download versions before 2.0, please see CHANGELOG.

• Can read both Vega and Vega-Lite files.
• Save output as svg or png from UI.
• Can determine the file format if the extension is *.vg.json or *.vl.json.
• If the extension is just *.json, will check for $schema field in the JSON spec.
• Otherwise will try to parse as Vega-Lite, then Vega.
• It will load external data files relative to the spec files directory.

You also can set your OS to have *.vg.json or *.vl.json opened with vega-desktop by default.
