One question
chart: How do chart semantics differ from a chart library?
chart expresses data visualization; Web drawing has its own implementation.
Audience votes might be shown as bars. chart describes the visualization and data; the registry’s Chart.js reference describes a Web implementation, not a required library for every display. Vote collection, permissions and shared state still need implementation and verification.
Start with these properties
variant selects a form such as a bar or line chart. data.labels names positions, while datasets supplies one or more named series of values. height constrains the display area without changing those values.
Read a structural example
From the source registry. This is structural reading material, not a live demo; referenced resources and actions require an application.
{
"id": "revenue-chart",
"type": "chart",
"props": {
"variant": "bar",
"data": {
"labels": [
"Jan",
"Feb",
"Mar",
"Apr"
],
"datasets": [
{
"label": "Revenue",
"data": [
120,
190,
150,
210
],
"backgroundColor": "#60a5fa"
}
]
}
}
}Jan corresponds to 120 and Feb to 190, with the remaining values following in order. Revenue names the series and backgroundColor controls its color. These are source-example values; a live poll still needs its result resource and update mechanism.
Check your understanding
Does rendering vote totals as bars create a complete voting system?
No. chart presents data; vote collection, shared data and write permissions remain separate responsibilities.
