What is the difference between Extension Editor and Visualization API?

[AshwathRaj_26]

Hi,

1. What is the difference between Extension editor and Viz API?

2. Can other front end web tech like d3JS be used to build charts in Qlik Sense and used in charts? If Yes, where can this be built?

Extension editor is an interface provided by qlik to edit the extension code.  You can develop extensions using this interface(window). It's a kind of code editor.

With Visualization API- As its name suggests it's an API.  with this API you can 

      1. Develop on-the-fly charts

      2. Render charts on a mashup
