Chart.xkcd is a JavaScript charting library that renders line, bar, pie, radar, and XY charts in a sketchy, hand-drawn xkcd comic style using SVG. It works with a simple script tag or npm install and requires only an SVG element to render.

Use cases

  • render charts with a hand-drawn xkcd style
  • add fun sketchy charts to a web page
  • create line and bar charts in svg
  • make a dashboard look cartoony
  • visualize data with a comic-style chart library

When to choose

  • you want playful, hand-drawn styled charts in the browser
  • you need a lightweight chart lib with a simple API
  • you want SVG-based charts without heavy dependencies

When to avoid

  • you need polished, professional-looking production charts
  • you need advanced interactions like zooming or tooltips
  • you need server-side rendering or canvas output
