shadcn.io is an independent project built on shadcn/ui
Installation
The command adds the example above to components/charts/ and, the first time, the chart kit to components/ui/charts/. Both are source files in your project from then on: read them, change them, delete what you don't use.
Usage
Give each row a column name under xDataKey and a number per series. Each MarimekkoSegment reads one series by its dataKey, and the chart works out the widths and shares.
<script lang="ts">
import {
ChartTooltip,
MarimekkoChart,
MarimekkoLabels,
MarimekkoSegment,
XAxis,
} from "@/components/ui/charts";
const data = [
{ region: "Americas", salesLed: 520, selfServe: 340 },
{ region: "Europe", salesLed: 310, selfServe: 280 },
{ region: "Asia Pacific", salesLed: 150, selfServe: 190 },
];
const formatThousands = (value: number) => `$${value}k`;
</script>
<MarimekkoChart
ariaLabel="Revenue by region and channel"
{data}
formatValue={formatThousands}
xDataKey="region"
>
<MarimekkoSegment dataKey="selfServe" label="Self-serve" />
<MarimekkoSegment dataKey="salesLed" label="Sales-led" />
<MarimekkoLabels />
<XAxis />
<ChartTooltip />
</MarimekkoChart>Anatomy
Segments stack in the order you write them, the first at the bottom. Grid, XAxis and YAxis are the same guides the line and bar charts use.
<MarimekkoChart {data} xDataKey="region">
<Grid horizontal />
<MarimekkoSegment dataKey="selfServe" label="Self-serve" />
<MarimekkoSegment dataKey="salesLed" label="Sales-led" />
<MarimekkoLabels showValues />
<XAxis />
<YAxis />
<ChartTooltip />
</MarimekkoChart>MarimekkoChart: Sizes each column by its total and stacks its segments to 100%.MarimekkoSegment: One series, read fromdataKey, with itslabelandfill.MarimekkoLabels: Each segment's share of its column, inside it where it fits.Grid: Guide lines at every 25%.XAxis: Each column's name and its share of the total.YAxis: The 0 to 100% scale.ChartTooltip: The hovered column's breakdown, the hovered series marked.
Labels and axes
MarimekkoLabels writes each segment's share of its column inside it, once the segment is at least 34 by 22 px. showValues adds the value below the share where there's room for a second line.
XAxis names each column with its share of the total underneath, and drops a name that doesn't fit its column. YAxis marks 0 to 100%.
With a legend
onHoverChange reports the hovered segment's series index. Pass it to a ChartLegend listing the series in the same order, and wrap both in ChartLegendHoverProvider: hovering a device in either one lights it in every country.
Customization
The kit is in your project, in components/ui/charts/: your framework's components over a shared core/. Change a default there and every chart picks it up.
class goes on the chart's container, so size and spacing are utility classes.
content on ChartTooltip gets the hovered segment as point: its column and series, its value and share of the column, and the column's columnShare of the whole.
A segment's fill is drawn as a lighter tint with a firmer outline in the same color. gap (2 px) separates columns and segments, and radius (4 px) rounds them.
<ChartTooltip>
{#snippet content({ point })}
<TooltipBox>
<div class="grid gap-1 px-3 py-2 text-sm">
<span class="font-medium">
{String(point.column)}, {String(point.series)}
</span>
<span class="text-muted-foreground">
{Math.round(Number(point.share) * 100)}% of the region
</span>
</div>
</TooltipBox>
{/snippet}
</ChartTooltip>Where a part renders content of its own, you pass it in. In Svelte:
ChartTooltip:{#snippet content({ point, index })}
Loading state
With status="loading" the chart draws muted columns of stacked segments, one column per row of data and one segment per series, and ignores the pointer. On "ready" the real segments grow in.
With nothing to pass yet, render <MarimekkoChartLoading /> in the chart's place.
Animation
Each column's segments grow up from its base on a spring, one column after another. animate={false} skips the entrance, and so does reduced motion.
Theming
Every color in the kit is one of your theme's tokens or a mix of them, except --chart-positive, a fixed green. A preset or the .dark class restyles the chart, and overriding a token in your CSS changes it everywhere.
A segment without fill takes --chart-1, --chart-2 and so on by its position. The grid is dashed in --chart-grid.
| Token | Default | Paints |
|---|---|---|
--chart-1 | your theme's | the first series |
--chart-2 | your theme's | the second series |
--chart-3 | your theme's | the third series |
--chart-grid | --border | grid lines |
--chart-label | --muted-foreground | tick labels |
--chart-tooltip-foreground | --popover-foreground | the tooltip's values |
--chart-tooltip-background | --popover | the tooltip panel |
:root {
--chart-grid: var(--muted);
--chart-label: var(--foreground);
}Accessibility
The chart is an image named by ariaLabel ("Marimekko chart" by default). Both dimensions are shares, so put the headline numbers in ariaDescription.
The keyboard walks each column from its bottom segment up, then on to the next column. With a ChartTooltip, every stop shows the whole column's breakdown.
- Tab
- Moves focus to the chart.
- Arrow Right
- Moves to the next segment. ArrowDown does the same.
- Arrow Left
- Moves to the previous segment. ArrowUp does the same.
- Home
- Jumps to the first segment.
- End
- Jumps to the last segment.
API reference
Svelte takes the same props as React, with class for className. Render props are snippets, listed below by their names. Keep data in $state.raw so the chart sees each new array.
MarimekkoChart
