About
Charts an assistant can answer with: line, bar, stacked bar, area and proportion, streamed in point by point into reserved slots so nothing shifts, with a table view, value formats and an accessible summary.
Built with React and Tailwind. Copy the prompt and paste it into Claude Code, Cursor or Lovable: your agent adds Chart to your project and fits it to your theme.
Code
How Chart is used: the demo's code. The component's own source comes with a free account.

* 21st shows a demo in a small frame: about 674 by 421 on a component page, 358 by 224 on a
* phone and 245 by 139 on a profile card. A demo taller than its frame gets scrollbars, which
* render white on dark pages. FitFrame fills the frame exactly instead.
*
* - "scale": the content shrinks until it fits, centered. For visuals such as orbs.
* - "crop": the content stays at full size from the top and fades out at the bottom. For text
* that streams in, where a changing scale would make the page breathe.
*
* `minWidth` lays out a wide demo (a table, a two column panel) at that width and scales it down
* to the frame, instead of letting it collapse to a narrow layout. The frame centers it, so it
* shrinks evenly on both sides.
*
* Anything marked `data-fit-hide` (state buttons, the chatcn.dev line) drops out in frames
* shorter than `hideBelow`, so a profile card shows the visual alone.
