+1 to echarts: While it can be more complex to start than the others, it remains fairly simple for the default graphs while providing enough flexibility to do pretty much anything.


Echarts isn’t hard to set up anymore now that GPT-4 takes care of the complexity.

Charts that used to take me days to set up and data-wrangle now only take minutes.

I suppose this applies to other libraries but I like echarts.


Can you share some of your prompts that you have used?


‘Using echarts and provided DATA, demonstrate how to convert a table of rows such that the “value” is aggregated and shown on a bar chart as the sum of all “values” for each “timestamp”

DATA: {json array}’

Dumping your data into the context window tends to help specify the task and focus the AI on the data structures to use.
