## What it is
Microcharts is a simple, cross-platform charting library for .NET that renders charts via SkiaSharp across MAUI, iOS, and Android. It prioritizes simplicity over heavy customization, with shared code and rendering for all supported platforms.

## Use cases
- draw simple bar and line charts in a .NET MAUI app
- add charts to an iOS or Android app with shared rendering
- visualize small datasets in a cross-platform mobile app
- quickly plot data without a heavyweight charting framework
- render charts with SkiaSharp

## When to choose
- you need simple, lightweight charts across MAUI, iOS, and Android
- you want one shared charting API for multiple .NET platforms
- you don't need deep customization

## When to avoid
