Example

The chart above, in each framework. Pick a framework once and every example on the site follows it.

shell
npm install @silverpoint/react @silverpoint/grounds @silverpoint/fonts
tsx
import '@silverpoint/fonts/fonts.css';
import '@silverpoint/grounds/styles.css';
import { DumbbellChart } from '@silverpoint/react/dumbbell-chart';

const data = [
  { clinic: 'Ashford', y2024: 59, y2025: 66 },
  { clinic: 'Brook Lane', y2024: 24, y2025: 30 },
  { clinic: 'Castlegate', y2024: 33, y2025: 47 },

Import

Each chart has its own subpath, so a bundle only carries the charts it uses. Every adapter also exports every chart from its barrel.

FrameworkImport
Reactimport { DumbbellChart } from '@silverpoint/react/dumbbell-chart';

Angularimport { SpDumbbellChart } from '@silverpoint/angular/dumbbell-chart'; // <sp-dumbbell-chart>

Props

The props DumbbellChart adds to the ones every chart takes. Accessor props (…Key, keys, names) name fields of your rows and are ignored without data.

endMarkerend-markerend_marker'dot' | 'arrow'arrow encodes the direction from the first value to the second.

Common props

Every chart also takes these. Framework conventions: camelCase in React and Angular, kebab-case in Vue templates, snake_case in Reflex. Read more about them.

Events

Pointer and keyboard exploration are built in. The item under the pointer or focus is reported, and a click, Enter or Space selects it. The item is { seriesKey, index, datum, value, point: { x, y } }.
