ApexCharts vs Chart.js: What are the differences?
Developers describe ApexCharts as "π Interactive SVG Charts for React and Vue.js". A modern JavaScript charting library to build interactive charts and visualizations with simple API. On the other hand, Chart.js is detailed as "Simple, clean and engaging charts for designers and developers". Visualize your data in 6 different ways. Each of them animated, with a load of customisation options and interactivity extensions.
ApexCharts and Chart.js can be categorized as "Charting Libraries" tools.
ApexCharts and Chart.js are both open source tools. Chart.js with 44.3K GitHub stars and 9.71K forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than ApexCharts with 6.59K GitHub stars and 295 GitHub forks.
I have used highcharts and it is pretty awesome for my previous project. now as I am about to start my new project I want to use other charting libraries such as recharts, chart js, Nivo, d3 js.... my upcoming project might use react js as front end and laravel as a backend technology. the project would be of hotel management type. please suggest me the best charts to use
I've used Highcharts with both Angular Js Reactive applications (render as ReactJs) and also a bit of D3. Personally I found Highcharts to be the easiest to use but, with still quite a good level of customisability if you need it. graphs and charts then give D3 a try.
