Usage
Data format
Two columns: X and Y. Each row is a named observation. Numeric coordinates determine placement; they are not equally spaced categories. Negative coordinates are supported. Numeric axes retain their direction in RTL.
Shared interactions
Hover, tap or focus a mark to inspect its exact value. Arrow keys, Home and End move between marks; Escape dismisses the tooltip. The source table remains available without JavaScript. Enhanced charts expose exact values through accessible marks and tooltips.
Lifecycle and themes
Load Chart Core, Chart Plots and this component module. Theme tokens supply colors in light and dark modes. Use layoutCharts.refresh(root) after changing the table and destroy(root) before unmounting. Wide charts scroll within their frame.
