Design comparison
Solution retrospective
My focus on this project was to experient with a chart library for data presentation in a diagram form. After some few research I settled to use the Chart component from Shadcn. The library was easy to use as it has a step by step guide on how to set various projects include a setup for React projects created through Vite. The tutorial includes also a complete setup for tailwindcss which I used for styling the project
What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?Some of the changes that I had to fix was in regards to the amount that has to be displayed when a user hovered over a bar. The amounts in my data represents a number and yet the hovered details should represent the amount with the currency sign. My work around was to create a CustomToolTip as follows
import React from "react";
import { TooltipProps } from "recharts";
// eslint-disable-next-line @typescript-eslint/no-explicit-any
const CustomTooltip: React.FC> = ({
active,
payload,
}) => {
if (active && payload && payload.length) {
return (
{`${
payload[0].name
} : $${payload[0].value.toFixed(2)}`}
);
}
return null;
};
export default CustomTooltip;
- The CustomTooltip component checks if the tooltip is active and if there is payload data.
- It formats the amount with a dollar sign and two decimal places using toFixed(2).
The CustomTooltip is then imported in the main file as follows
import CustomTooltip from "./components/customToolTip";
value.slice(0, 3)}
/>
} />
} />
