## What it is
A React component that renders an SVG calendar heatmap inspired by GitHub's contribution graph. It is highly configurable with props for date ranges, labels, orientation, and interaction callbacks.

## Use cases
- display a github-style contribution graph in react
- visualize daily activity counts on a calendar
- show a year of data as a heatmap grid
- add a calendar heatmap chart to a dashboard
- render svg heatmap of date-based values
- track user streaks with a calendar visualization

## When to choose
- you need a github-style calendar heatmap in a React app
- you want a lightweight, configurable SVG heatmap component
- you need click/hover interactions on calendar cells

## When to avoid
- you are not using React
- you need charts beyond calendar heatmaps
- you need a canvas or non-SVG rendering approach
