Overview
The React step area chart is similar to a step line chart, but with the area between the vertical and horizontal steps filled with color. It supports advanced features such as zooming, panning, animations, and dynamic data updates.
Multiple data series
Multiple data series can be plotted within a single chart, allowing users to compare different datasets. Enabling features like legends and tooltips provides additional insights into each series.
Data markers
Data points can be marked using built-in shapes: circles, rectangles, ellipses, vertical and horizontal lines, diamonds, triangles, pentagons, crosses, and plus signs. Custom images can also be used to enhance visual appeal.
Data labels
Data labels offer contextual information for each data point and can be rotated to a specified angle for better readability.
Dual axes
Multiple axes can be used to plot datasets with significantly different value ranges, enabling clearer comparisons.
Zoom and pan
Zooming and panning features allow users to explore specific regions of large datasets for detailed analysis.
Missing data handling
React step area charts gracefully handle missing data by supporting empty points, ensuring continuity in visualization.
Vertical step area chart
The chart can be transposed vertically to offer an alternative perspective on the data.
Styling options
Customize step area colors and borders using built-in APIs to match your design and data presentation needs.

import { Chart, ChartSeriesCollection, ChartSeries } from '@syncfusion/react-charts';
export default function App() {
const data = [
{ x: 2000, y: 180 }, { x: 2001, y: 240 },
{ x: 2002, y: 370 }, { x: 2003, y: 200 },
{ x: 2004, y: 229 }, { x: 2005, y: 210 },
{ x: 2006, y: 337 }, { x: 2007, y: 258 },
{ x: 2008, y: 300 }, { x: 2009, y: 173 },
{ x: 2010, y: 220 }, { x: 2011, y: 309 }
];
return (
<Chart>
<ChartSeriesCollection>
<ChartSeries dataSource={data} xField="x" yField="y" type="StepArea" />
</ChartSeriesCollection>
</Chart>
)
