## What it is
Recharts is a composable charting library for React applications built on top of D3 submodules and native SVG. It provides declarative, reusable React components (LineChart, BarChart, Tooltip, etc.) for building charts with minimal effort.

## Use cases
- add line charts to a react dashboard
- render bar charts from  data in react
- build responsive charts with tooltips and legends
- create composable svg charts in a react app
- visualize analytics data in a react frontend
- customize chart axes and grid styling declaratively

## When to choose
- you are building charts in a React application
- you want declarative, component-based chart composition
- you need lightweight SVG charts with D3 power underneath
- you want a well-maintained, widely adopted charting library with TypeScript support

## When to avoid
- your project does not use React
- you need canvas-based rendering for very large datasets
- you need highly specialized chart types not covered by its components
- you need charts outside the browser, e.g. server-side image generation

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: data-visualization, charts, ui-components
- domain: data-visualization, frontend, web-development
- platform: browser, cross-platform
