It supports multiple chart types (line, area, bar, scatter, pie, candlestick), built-in interactions (hover, tooltips, crosshair), streaming data updates, zoom capabilities, and theming. The library requires WebGPU support (Chrome/Edge 113+, Safari 18+) and includes React bindings via a separate package. The architecture uses a render coordinator pattern that manages GPU context, layout, scales, and data upload while delegating rendering to specialized GPU renderers with WGSL shaders. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
