Update Vega to the latest build

Problem: MediaWiki currently uses an older version of the Graph rendering library Vega (our build released seven years ago) that has issues with accessibility, syntax, functionality, and security. To work with it, you have to resurrect outdated manuals - this, in turn, prevents users from creating cool new graphics.
Proposed solution: Update Vega to the latest build
Who would benefit: Readers and Editors

What is Vega exactly? Some quick Google searches for "Vega Commons" etc only show the star. Eiim (talk) 22:06, 25 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
