A pie chart with nothing extra: seven values, seven slices, and no legend or settings in the way. A clean starting point for your own.
Just a list of categories and their values. The chart works out each slice’s share of the total, so the numbers can be counts, money or hours. They only need to describe parts of one whole.
Built with amCharts 5, a JavaScript library. The JavaScript includes your theme and renderer (canvas or SVG); the JSON also follows the changes you make with the controls.
npm install @amcharts/amcharts5. See Getting started.
The same chart as a JSON config. Chart Maker reads and writes this format, the library's JSON parser turns it into a chart, and the <am5-chart> element puts it on a page with no code."type" is the class to create and "settings" what you would pass to its new() in code; "properties" fill in its parts, lists such as series and axes or templates such as columns.template; "refs" holds objects used in more than one place ("#series-0" stands for the one named series-0); a string starting with "@" takes a value from another object, such as "@series.get('fill')".
A complete page. Save it as an .html file and open it in a browser.
Paste this into an AI coding assistant to build the chart from scratch. More in amCharts & AI.
