Website Content Technology

Barchart Website Content is available through a variety of technologies, as well as via Barchart hosted or third-party hosted environments.  Typically, Barchart will host and manage the website content which is seamlessly integrated into a third-party website using JavaScript Includes.  This method maintains Barchart as the vendor of record with the relevant exchanges and provides the client with a maintenance free solution which involves minimal web development time for implementation of the content.  Barchart’s JavaScript Include solutions also provide for customization using style sheets / CSS.  For more advanced designs and layouts, a custom JavaScript Include solution may be required or the use of another delivery method.  Barchart’s Website Content technology solutions also include JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) and Web Services (XML data feed).
