Simon Brunel 543c31d549 Add Google Analytics to samples and update badges (#4734) 
Inject the GA tracking snippet for all samples, including the index page. Also update README.md badges using the shields.io service for consistency with flat-square style and cache, and add release badges to the installation documentation page.

Installation

Chart.js can be installed via npm or bower. It is recommended to get Chart.js this way.

npm

npm

npm install chart.js --save

Bower

bower

bower install chart.js --save

CDN

cdn

or just use these Chart.js CDN links.

Github

github

You can download the latest version of Chart.js on GitHub.

If you download or clone the repository, you must build Chart.js to generate the dist files. Chart.js no longer comes with prebuilt release versions, so an alternative option to downloading the repo is strongly advised.

Selecting the Correct Build

Chart.js provides two different builds that are available for your use.

Stand-Alone Build

Files:

  • dist/Chart.js
  • dist/Chart.min.js

This version only includes Chart.js. If this version is used and you require the use of the time axis, Moment.js will need to be included before Chart.js.

Bundled Build

Files:

  • dist/Chart.bundle.js
  • dist/Chart.bundle.min.js

The bundled version includes Moment.js built into the same file. This version should be used if you wish to use time axes and want a single file to include. Do not use this build if your application already includes Moment.js. If you do, Moment.js will be included twice, increasing the page load time and potentially introducing version issues.
