## What it is
Charted is a self-hosted web application from Medium's Product Science team that turns links to CSV, TSV, Google Sheets, or Dropbox data files into automatic, interactive, shareable charts. It intentionally offers minimal formatting and transformation options, focusing on responsive rendering, periodic data re-fetching, and simple chart adjustments.

## Use cases
- visualize a csv file as an interactive chart without writing code
- create shareable charts from a public google spreadsheet
- self-host a lightweight charting tool for quick data plots
- auto-refresh a chart from a data file every 30 minutes
- split data series into separate charts for comparison
- turn tsv or dropbox-hosted data into a responsive chart

## When to avoid
- you need rich formatting, data transformation, or many chart types
- you expect active maintenance or new features - the repo was archived in 2018
- your data needs x-axis parsing or non-uniform spacing, since the first column is only used as labels
- you need a charting library to embed in your own app rather than a standalone web app
