Chart Overview
The Kendo UI Chart uses modern browser technologies to render high-quality data visualizations.
All graphics are rendered on the client by using Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) with a fallback to Canvas. The Charts support a set of series types such as Bar, Line, Area, Bullet, Pie, Scatter, Bubble, Polar, and other.
The Charts is part of Kendo UI for jQuery, a
professional grade UI library with 110+ components for building modern and feature-rich applications. To try it out sign up for a free 30-day trial.
