## What it is
EvilCharts is an open-source collection of beautifully designed, animated chart components for React and Next.js, built on Recharts and Apache ECharts and styled for shadcn/ui. Charts are copy-paste components with a shared compound API, letting you switch rendering engines with a rename.

## Use cases
- add animated charts to a react app
- beautiful bar line area pie charts for next.js
- shadcn ui styled chart components
- switch between recharts and echarts without rewriting code
- copy paste dashboard chart components
- responsive interactive data visualizations for web apps

## When to choose
- you want polished, animated, opinionated chart components in a React/Next.js project
- you already use shadcn/ui and want matching chart styling
- you want the flexibility to pick Recharts (SVG) or Apache ECharts (canvas) per chart

## When to avoid
- you need a framework-agnostic chart library outside React
- you prefer fully default, unopinionated chart styling
- you need server-side chart rendering or non-JavaScript environments

## Facets
- artifact type: library

- domain: data-visualization, frontend, web-development
