I'm not familiar with django-boxes, but one architectural question is whether you want to render the graphs on the server (e.g. python) or in the browser (e.g. javascript).
If you render on the server, you could use something like matplotlib (python) to draw your graphs, and then push those images to the client. You can make some pretty nice graphs with matplotlib, but a disadvantage of this approach is that it is difficult to make the graphs interactive. The more common approach these days seems to be to push just the data behind your graphs to the browser (e.g. using JSON), and then draw the graphs on the client side using javascript. d3js is a great library for drawing interactive graphs in SVG, and/or you could use HTML5 canvas elements. Good luck!
