Detailed installation instructions can be found on the installation page. Creating a Chart It's easy to get started with Chart.js. All that's required is the script included in your page along with a single <canvas> node to render the chart. In this example, we create a bar chart for a single dataset and render that in our page. You can see all the ways to use Chart.js in the usage documentation. <canvas id="myChart" width="400" height="400"></canvas> <script> const ctx = document.getElementById('myChart').getContext('2d'); const myChart = new Chart(ctx, { type: 'bar', data: { labels: ['Red', 'Blue', 'Yellow', 'Green', 'Purple', 'Orange'], datasets: [{ label: '# of Votes', data: [12, 19, 3, 5, 2, 3], backgroundColor: [ 'rgba(255, 99, 132, 0.2)', 'rgba(54, 162, 235, 0.2)', 'rgba(255, 206, 86, 0.2)', 'rgba(75, 192, 192, 0.2)', 'rgba(153, 102, 255, 0.2)', 'rgba(255, 159, 64, 0.2)' ], borderColor: [ 'rgba(255, 99, 132, 1)', 'rgba(54, 162, 235, 1)', 'rgba(255, 206, 86, 1)', 'rgba(75, 192, 192, 1)', 'rgba(153, 102, 255, 1)', 'rgba(255, 159, 64, 1)' ], borderWidth: 1 }] }, options: { scales: { y: { beginAtZero: true } } } }); </script> Contributing Before submitting an issue or a pull request to the project, please take a moment to look over the contributing guidelines first.
