Data Visualization Component Library
Systematic guidance for selecting and implementing effective data visualizations, matching data characteristics with appropriate visualization types, ensuring clarity, accessibility, and impact.
Overview
Data visualization transforms raw data into visual representations that reveal patterns, trends, and insights. This skill provides:
1. Selection Framework: Systematic decision trees from data type + purpose → chart type 2. 24+ Visualization Methods: Organized by analytical purpose 3. Accessibility Patterns: WCAG 2.1 AA compliance, colorblind-safe palettes 4. Performance Strategies: Optimize for dataset size (<1000 to >100K points) 5. Multi-Language Support: JavaScript/TypeScript (primary), Python, Rust, Go
---
Quick Start Workflow
Step 1: Assess Data
What type? [categorical | continuous | temporal | spatial | hierarchical]
How many dimensions? [1D | 2D | multivariate]
How many points? [<100 | 100-1K | 1K-10K | >10K]Step 2: Determine Purpose
What story to tell? [comparison | trend | distribution | relationship | composition | flow | hierarchy | geographic]Step 3: Select Chart Type
Quick Selection:
- Compare 5-10 categories → Bar Chart
- Show sales over 12 months → Line Chart
- Display distribution of ages → Histogram or Violin Plot
- Explore correlation → Scatter Plot
- Show budget breakdown → Treemap or Stacked Bar
Complete decision trees: See references/selection-matrix.md
Step 4: Implement
See language sections below for recommended libraries.
Step 5: Apply Accessibility
- Add text alternative (aria-label)
- Ensure 3:1 color contrast minimum
- Use colorblind-safe palette
- Provide data table alternative
Step 6: Optimize Performance
- <1000 points: Standard SVG rendering
- >1000 points: Sampling or Canvas rendering
- Very large: Server-side aggregation
---
Purpose-First Selection
Match analytical purpose to chart type:
| Purpose | Chart Types |
|---|---|
| Compare values | Bar Chart, Lollipop Chart |
| Show trends | Line Chart, Area Chart |
| Reveal distributions | Histogram, Violin Plot, Box Plot |
| Explore relationships | Scatter Plot, Bubble Chart |
| Explain composition | Treemap, Stacked Bar, Pie Chart (<6 slices) |
| Visualize flow | Sankey Diagram, Chord Diagram |
| Display hierarchy | Sunburst, Dendrogram, Treemap |
| Show geographic | Choropleth Map, Symbol Map |
---
Visualization Catalog
Tier 1: Fundamental Primitives
General audiences, straightforward data stories:
- Bar Chart: Compare categories
- Line Chart: Show trends over time
- Scatter Plot: Explore relationships
- Pie Chart: Part-to-whole (max 5-6 slices)
- Area Chart: Emphasize magnitude over time
Tier 2: Purpose-Driven
Specific analytical insights:
- Comparison: Grouped Bar, Lollipop, Bullet Chart
- Trend: Stream Graph, Slope Graph, Sparklines
- Distribution: Violin Plot, Box Plot, Histogram
- Relationship: Bubble Chart, Hexbin Plot
- Composition: Treemap, Sunburst, Waterfall
- Flow: Sankey Diagram, Chord Diagram
Tier 3: Advanced
Complex data, sophisticated audiences:
- Multi-dimensional: Parallel Coordinates, Radar Chart, Small Multiples
- Temporal: Gantt Chart, Calendar Heatmap, Candlestick
- Network: Force-Directed Graph, Adjacency Matrix
Detailed descriptions: See references/chart-catalog.md

Accessibility Requirements (WCAG 2.1 AA)
Text Alternatives
<figure role="img" aria-label="Sales increased 15% from Q3 to Q4">
<svg>...</svg>
</figure>Color Requirements
- Non-text UI elements: 3:1 minimum contrast
- Text: 4.5:1 minimum (or 3:1 for large text ≥24px)
- Don't rely on color alone - use patterns/textures + labels
Colorblind-Safe Palettes
IBM Palette (Recommended):
#648FFF (Blue), #785EF0 (Purple), #DC267F (Magenta),
#FE6100 (Orange), #FFB000 (Yellow)Avoid: Red/Green combinations (8% of males have red-green colorblindness)
Keyboard Navigation
- Tab through interactive elements
- Enter/Space to activate tooltips
- Arrow keys to navigate data points
Complete accessibility guide: See references/accessibility.md

Performance by Data Volume
| Rows | Strategy | Implementation |
|---|---|---|
| <1,000 | Direct rendering | Standard libraries (SVG) |
| 1K-10K | Sampling/aggregation | Downsample to ~500 points |
| 10K-100K | Canvas rendering | Switch from SVG to Canvas |
| >100K | Server-side aggregation | Backend processing |

JavaScript/TypeScript Implementation
Recharts (Business Dashboards)
Composable React components, declarative API, responsive by default.
npm install rechartsimport { LineChart, Line, XAxis, YAxis, Tooltip, ResponsiveContainer } from 'recharts';
const data = [
{ month: 'Jan', sales: 4000 },
{ month: 'Feb', sales: 3000 },
{ month: 'Mar', sales: 5000 },
];
export function SalesChart() {
return (
<ResponsiveContainer width="100%" height={300}>
<LineChart data={data}>
<XAxis dataKey="month" />
<YAxis />
<Tooltip />
<Line type="monotone" dataKey="sales" stroke="#8884d8" />
</LineChart>
</ResponsiveContainer>
);
}D3.js (Custom Visualizations)
Maximum flexibility, industry standard, unlimited chart types.
npm install d3Plotly (Scientific/Interactive)
3D visualizations, statistical charts, interactive out-of-box.
npm install react-plotly.js plotly.jsDetailed examples: See references/javascript/
---
Python Implementation
Common Libraries:
- Plotly - Interactive charts (same API as JavaScript)
- Matplotlib - Publication-quality static plots
- Seaborn - Statistical visualizations
- Altair - Declarative visualization grammar
When building Python implementations: 1. Follow universal patterns above 2. Use RESEARCH_GUIDE.md to research libraries 3. Add to references/python/
---
Integration with Design Tokens
Reference the design-tokens skill for theming:
--chart-color-primary
--chart-color-1 through --chart-color-10
--chart-axis-color
--chart-grid-color
--chart-tooltip-bg<Line stroke="var(--chart-color-primary)" />Light/dark/high-contrast themes work automatically via design tokens.
---
Common Mistakes to Avoid
1. Chart-first thinking - Choose based on data + purpose, not aesthetics 2. Pie charts for >6 categories - Use sorted bar chart instead 3. Dual-axis charts - Usually misleading, use small multiples 4. 3D when 2D sufficient - Adds complexity, reduces clarity 5. Rainbow color scales - Not perceptually uniform, not colorblind-safe 6. Truncated y-axis - Indicate clearly or start at zero 7. Too many colors - Limit to 6-8 distinct categories 8. Missing context - Always label axes, include units

Quick Decision Tree
START: What is your data?
Categorical (categories/groups)
├─ Compare values → Bar Chart
├─ Show composition → Treemap or Pie Chart (<6 slices)
└─ Show flow → Sankey Diagram
Continuous (numbers)
├─ Single variable → Histogram, Violin Plot
└─ Two variables → Scatter Plot
Temporal (time series)
├─ Single metric → Line Chart
├─ Multiple metrics → Small Multiples
└─ Daily patterns → Calendar Heatmap
Hierarchical (nested)
├─ Proportions → Treemap
└─ Show depth → Sunburst, Dendrogram
Geographic (locations)
├─ Regional aggregates → Choropleth Map
└─ Point locations → Symbol Map---

Skill Library Visualizations
Three complementary visualizations of the ai-design-components skill library, demonstrating the data-viz skill's guidance on selecting appropriate chart types based on data characteristics and analytical purpose.
Overview
This demo showcases three different visualization approaches for the same hierarchical dataset:
1. Treemap - Hierarchical overview (best for at-a-glance understanding) 2. Grouped Bar Chart - Category comparison (best for progress tracking) 3. Sunburst Chart - Interactive exploration (best for engagement)
Data Structure
Dataset: 14 skills across 6 plugin groups
- Complete skills: 2 (data-viz, forms)
- In progress: 12 remaining skills
- Overall completion: ~14%
Hierarchy:
Plugin Groups (6)
├── ui-foundation-skills (0/1 complete)
├── ui-data-skills (2/3 complete) ⭐
├── ui-input-skills (1/2 complete)
├── ui-interaction-skills (0/3 complete)
├── ui-structure-skills (0/3 complete)
└── ui-content-skills (0/2 complete)Visualization Breakdown
1. Treemap (Hierarchical Overview)
When to use:
- At-a-glance overview needed
- Space-efficient display required
- Hierarchical proportions matter
Strengths:
- Shows all 14 skills + 6 groups in one compact view
- Visual hierarchy clear (groups → skills)
- Color coding instantly shows status
- Efficient use of screen space
Implementation:
- Library: Recharts
- File:
SkillLibraryTreemap.tsx - Features: Responsive, accessible, data table alternative
Following data-viz skill guidance:
"Hierarchical data → Treemap when focus on proportions and composition"
---
2. Grouped Bar Chart (Plugin Group Comparison)
When to use:
- Comparing categories is primary goal
- Progress tracking across groups
- Stakeholder presentations
Strengths:
- Easy comparison of complete vs WIP across groups
- Sorted by completion rate (highest first)
- Clear axis labels and legend
- Familiar chart type (no learning curve)
Implementation:
- Library: Recharts
- File:
SkillLibraryBarChart.tsx - Features: Sorted display, summary statistics, tooltips
Following data-viz skill guidance:
"Compare categories → Bar Chart - universally understood and effective"
---
3. Sunburst Chart (Interactive Exploration)
When to use:
- Interactive exploration desired
- Engaging presentation needed
- Hierarchical drill-down useful
Strengths:
- Visually engaging radial layout
- Interactive hover and click
- Shows proportional distribution
- Modern, professional appearance
Implementation:
- Library: D3.js
- File:
SkillLibrarySunburst.tsx - Features: Custom SVG, interactive states, center focus
Following data-viz skill guidance:
"Custom visualizations requiring maximum flexibility → D3.js"
---
Accessibility Features
All visualizations follow WCAG 2.1 AA compliance:
✅ Color Contrast: 3:1 minimum for UI elements ✅ Colorblind-Safe Palette: Paul Tol palette (no red/green reliance) ✅ Text Alternatives: aria-label and <figure role="img"> ✅ Data Table Alternative: Collapsible tables for screen readers ✅ Keyboard Navigation: Full keyboard support (where applicable) ✅ Screen Reader Announcements: Status updates via aria-live

Key Learnings from data-viz Skill
Selection Framework Applied
Data Assessment:
- Type: Categorical + Hierarchical
- Dimensions: 2D (group + skill)
- Volume: Small (<100 data points)
- Purpose: Show composition, hierarchy, progress
Chart Selection Decision Tree:
Hierarchical data?
├─ Focus on proportions → Treemap ✓
├─ Compare categories → Grouped Bar ✓
└─ Interactive exploration → Sunburst ✓Progressive Disclosure Pattern
Following Anthropic Skills best practices:
Skill Structure: 1. SKILL.md - Overview and quick start (<500 lines) 2. references/ - Detailed chart catalog and guides 3. examples/ - Working code (this demo)
Token Efficiency:
- Metadata always loaded (name + description)
- Full skill content loaded on trigger
- Examples accessed as needed
---
Performance Notes
Dataset Size: 14 skills (trivial for all chart types)
Rendering Performance:
- Treemap: <50ms
- Bar Chart: <30ms
- Sunburst: <100ms (D3 custom rendering)
Optimization Strategies (from data-viz skill):
- <1,000 points: Direct rendering (SVG) ✓ Applied
- 1K-10K: Consider sampling
- >10K: Canvas rendering or server-side aggregation
---
Future Enhancements
Potential improvements:
1. Theme Switching - Light/dark/high-contrast (using design-tokens skill) 2. Export Functionality - Download as PNG/SVG 3. Filter Controls - Show/hide specific plugin groups 4. Animation - Smooth transitions between states 5. Drill-Down - Click plugin group to see skill details 6. Comparison View - Side-by-side chart comparisons

FAQ
How do I pick the right chart type?
Assess your data type and count, decide the analytical purpose (comparison, trend, distribution, relationship), then match to a chart using the selection matrix.
How do I keep charts accessible?
Add text alternatives via aria-label, ensure 3:1 minimum contrast, use colorblind-safe palettes, and avoid relying on color alone.
