QuickChart is an open-source web service that renders chart images and QR codes from URLs or POST requests, using Chart.js configurations. It can be self-hosted or used via the hosted quickchart.io API, making charts embeddable in emails, SMS, PDFs, and other static contexts.

Use cases

  • embed charts in emails and newsletters
  • generate chart images from a URL for chatbots and SMS
  • render Chart.js configs as PNG images
  • generate QR codes via API
  • create charts from Google Sheets or Airtable data with no code
  • self-host a chart image rendering API

When to choose

  • you need static chart images embeddable in email, PDFs, or chat
  • you already know Chart.js and want to render configs as images
  • you want a self-hostable chart image API with no vendor lock-in
  • you need QR code generation via a simple URL

When to avoid

  • you need interactive, client-side charts in a web app
  • you need real-time streaming data visualization
  • you require heavy custom Chart.js plugins on v3/v4, which have limited support
