let ts3 = new TimeSeries(3, {labelText: "Day 3"});

// Add data to time series
ts1.data = [
  new DataSample({color:'#FF0000', value: 20, desc:"Bob"}),
  new DataSample({color:'#BB0000', value: 30, desc:"John"}),
  new DataSample({color:'#880000', value: 10, desc:"Max"}),

// Create the chart
let options = {xAxis: {xLabel:"Percentage of completion"}};
let chart = new HorizontalChart(options);
chart.addTimeSeries(ts1, ts2, ts3);
chart.streamTo(canvas);
