Migrate docs from AsciiDoc to Markdown. The preview can be built after #212557 is merged. @florent-leborgne please tag reviewers, add the appropriate label(s), and take this out of draft when you're ready. Note: More files are deleted than added here because the content from some files was moved to [elastic/docs-content](https://github.com/elastic/docs-content). **What has moved to [elastic/docs-content](https://github.com/elastic/docs-content)?** Public-facing narrative and conceptual docs have moved. Most can now be found under the following directories in the new docs: - explore-analyze: Discover, Dashboards, Visualizations, Reporting, Alerting, dev tools... - deploy-manage: Stack management (Spaces, user management, remote clusters...) - troubleshooting: .... troubleshooting pages **What is staying in the Kibana repo?** - Reference content (= anything that is or could be auto-generated): Settings, syntax references - Release notes - Developer guide --------- Co-authored-by: Florent Le Borgne <florent.leborgne@elastic.co>

# Developing Visualizations [development-visualize-index]
|
|
|
|
::::{important}
|
|
These pages document internal APIs and are not guaranteed to be supported across future versions of {{kib}}.

|
|
|
The internal APIs for creating custom visualizations are in a state of heavy churn as they are being migrated to the new {{kib}} platform, and large refactorings have been happening across minor releases in the `7.x` series. In particular, in `7.5` and later we have made significant changes to the legacy APIs as we work to gradually replace them.
|
|
|
|
As a result, starting in `7.5` we have removed the documentation for the legacy APIs to prevent confusion. We expect to be able to create new documentation later in `7.x` when the visualizations plugin has been completed.
|
|
|
|
We would recommend waiting until later in `7.x` to upgrade your plugins if possible. If you would like to keep up with progress on the visualizations plugin in the meantime, here are a few resources:
|
|
|
|
* The [breaking changes](/release-notes/breaking-changes.md#kibana-900-breaking-changes) documentation, where we try to capture any changes to the APIs as they occur across minors.
|
|
* [Meta issue](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/44121) which is tracking the move of the plugin to the new {{kib}} platform
|
|
* Our [Elastic Stack workspace on Slack](https://www.elastic.co/blog/join-our-elastic-stack-workspace-on-slack).
|
|
* The [source code](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/master/src/platform/plugins/shared/visualizations), which will continue to be the most accurate source of information.
