Out of the box, the composer installation of Varbase doesn't include all of the libraries and the error messages don't make this clear. You'll only notice once you start trying to use them and notice that the libraries aren't loading on the right pages. Otherwise the Views lets you select and then it displays nothing.

This offers some support:

(But I haven't been able to make it work yet.)

Thank you for reporting.

Have you had a look at the following read me files?
https://cgit.drupalcode.org/charts/tree/README.txt?h=8.x-3.x&id=6095c72
https://cgit.drupalcode.org/charts/tree/modules/charts_highcharts/README...
https://cgit.drupalcode.org/charts/tree/modules/charts_chartjs/README.tx...
https://cgit.drupalcode.org/charts/tree/modules/charts_c3/README.txt?h=8...

They do have number of custom repositories

Thanks very much. This ended up helping. I don't know why I didn't see the README but it helps.

Also, I hate to ask this, but just how does one copy this into the composer.json file? I had to add extra string tags because the repository section is a mapping. I just ended up using the library name as a tag for the JSON block in the readme and it started to parse correctly. Then it worked.

Have you considered putting these directly in the composer file? It worries me a bit to hard code in the version numbers.

Looks like you need to be consistent in the repositories key: Either with or without label.

        {"name": "slick", "package": "npm-asset/slick-carousel"},
        {"name": "ace", "package": "npm-asset/ace-builds"},

        {"name": "masonry", "package": "npm-asset/masonry-layout"},
        {"name": "imagesloaded", "package": "npm-asset/imagesloaded"},
        {"name": "swagger-ui", "package": "swagger-api/swagger-ui"}
      ]
    },

Add all extra libraries is you need them.
