Chartist is a simple responsive charting library built with SVG. There are hundreds of nice charting libraries already out there, but they are either:
That's why we started Chartist and our goal is to solve all of the above issues.
Quickstart • What is it made for? • What's new in v1? • Docs • Examples • ContributionInstall this library using your favorite package manager:
pnpm add chartist
# or
yarn add chartist
# or
npm i chartist
Then, just import chart you want and use it:
import { BarChart } from 'chartist';
new BarChart('#chart', {
labels: ['W1', 'W2', 'W3', 'W4', 'W5', 'W6', 'W7', 'W8', 'W9', 'W10'],
series: [
[1, 2, 4, 8, 6, -2, -1, -4, -6, -2]
]
}, {
high: 10,
low: -10,
axisX: {
labelInterpolationFnc: (value, index) => (index % 2 === 0 ? value : null)
}
});

Chartist's goal is to provide a simple, lightweight and unintrusive library to responsively craft charts on your website. It's important to understand that one of the main intentions of Chartist is to rely on standards rather than providing it's own solution to a problem which is already solved by those standards. We need to leverage the power of browsers today and say good bye to the idea of solving all problems ourselves.
Chartist works with inline-SVG and therefore leverages the power of the DOM to provide parts of its functionality. This also means that Chartist does not provide it's own event handling, labels, behaviors or anything else that can just be done with plain HTML, JavaScript and CSS. The single and only responsibility of Chartist is to help you drawing "Simple responsive Charts" using inline-SVG in the DOM, CSS to style and JavaScript to provide an API for configuring your charts.
