Console’s review

· Reviewed by David Mytton

What we like

Push streaming data at 60fps or just pass an array of static data. Simple React library that gives you full access to the underlying components if the built-in ones aren’t sufficient. Supports a range of charts and frames. Customizable with themes. Also supports server-side rendering.

Tradeoffs

If you need basic charts with minimal customization then it’s overkill - they recommend something like Recharts in that case.
