Thank you. I installed the related packages and it didn't work so I forked the sources from the repo. But I would like to know where in the documnetation states which version of what package we need to use in order to get everything working?

Since this is a JavaScript project all of dependencies are listed in package.json.

Thank you. I totaly understand. Package.json could be specific to the project as well but what I was asking is wether there is a general guideline that says you mustto use d3 3.5.5 or earlier otherwise the visual will not work. Something to that effect for major depencies but again I apreciate your help.

There's no recommendation to use specific versions of third party packages.
However, some packages have issues in Power BI context but such issues can be workarounded.
If you face any issues please post an issue at Custom Visuals Community.
