ChartGPU is an MIT-licensed TypeScript charting library that renders charts entirely with WebGPU instead of Canvas 2D or SVG. It targets large datasets, real-time streaming appends, multi-chart dashboards sharing one GPU device, and 3D series, with no WebGL/Canvas fallback.

Use cases

• render million-point scatter plots in the browser
• build streaming real-time dashboards with many charts
• plot candlestick and OHLC financial charts
• visualize high-rate time series without dropped frames
• render 3D point clouds and surfaces on the web
• create heatmaps and spectrogram-style visualizations

When to choose

• you need to chart hundreds of thousands to millions of points smoothly
• you are building observability, trading, or scientific dashboards with many synchronized charts
• your target browsers support WebGPU (Chrome/Edge 113+, Safari 18+)
• you want GPU-side sampling, density binning, and streaming appends with capped memory

When to avoid

• you need broad browser support including older Firefox or WebGL/Canvas fallback
• you only need simple static charts with modest data sizes
• your users are on devices without WebGPU-capable GPUs
