Announcement: DeepSeek can write ECharts code

[helgasoft]

What problem does this feature solve?

DeepSeek seems to know a fair amount about ECharts API. It writes well-structured code and additional tips for code improvement.
Below are some examples. I added and documented some very minor code fixes where needed.
Original text answers are not included, but you could easily recreate them by using the prompts.
Hint: due to extreme interest, today 1/28/25 DeepSeek R1 servers are probably overloaded and cannot answer sometimes. Toggle off the "DeepThink R1" button (from blue to white) to use DeepSeek V3 which is sufficient for coding and seems more accessible.

This is great news. Additionally, I'm considering working on a project to generate ECharts options from Markdown Mermaid syntax. Maybe it can help generative AI generate ECharts charts better. Once I have a more detailed plan written later, discussions are welcome~
