Just an annoncement that PlotlyJS has been updated for Julia 1.0.

There are a few exciting new features:

- Use WebIO.jl for all display integrations. This simplified the code in PlotlyJS.jl (net reduction of about 700 LOC)
- Ability to subscribe julia functions as callback to plotly.js javascript events (such as hover, click, zoom/pan) allowing for Julia to drive rich, interactive visualizations/miniapps. See updated section in [docs](http://spencerlyon.com/PlotlyJS.jl/syncplots/#syncplots) for examples
- Robust writing figures to files (pdf, png, eps, jpeg, svg) using the [ORCA.jl](https://github.com/sglyon/ORCA.jl) package – a thin Julia wrapper around [Plotly’s official orca](https://github.com/plotly/orca) project that is used on plot.ly to export figures.

The main thing left to do is fix the integration with Plots.jl. As the plotlyjs specific backend code is very short, I anticipate that this will be quick to implement, but I wanted to point out that this has not been done yet.

As always please open an issue if something is not working.

Thanks and happy plotting!
