nivo VS victory

Nivo is a data visualization library built on top of D3.js and React. It offers a range of well-designed, customizable charts with great animations, making it suitable for creating visually impressive data visualizations.

When it comes to charting, Nivo makes you immediately superhero.

Since no one mentioned it, checkout nivo

Today this works thanks to nivo and Cloudinary, but that journey included a lot of trials and testing for the perfect solution.

Nivo is built on D3 and provides a variety of templates for data visualization and presentation. It is one of the few libraries that provide server-side rendering ability and fully declarative charts.

Then, we can think about the implementation. We use Nivo for most data visualizations, but we do have a few that either use straight HTML/CSS, or use D3 directly.

I always use https://nivo.rocks/ you can customize it a ton. Works great.

I use nivo.rocks to visualize the genres and make the list more interactive. Please read my comment on how I implemented it.

CRUD is just one part of the layer. It allows adding/removing/updating data. This is simply a data-foundation for an application.

Of course it feels the same across apps and industries-- it's a concrete slab upon which you build things.

Add layers on top of that, such as:

- Data visualizations. You have data from your CRUD, so do something creative with it. If you're familiar with ReactJS, check out open source, free libraries such as: https://nivo.rocks/ and https://charts.ant.design/

- Data integrations. Depending on the business you're in, experiment with integrating your CRUD app with external data sources via REST API or GraphQL. For example, a CRM like Salesforce or Marketo. Or a REST API in a particular business domain. Or a Google product which a customer might use, such as google drive.

Victory Native is a chart library that was developed in 2015. It has been 7 years since its inception. With a high cumulative download count of 7,434,044, it has garnered an impressive 10.3k+ stars on GitHub. It is the longest-standing and most widely used chart library in the history of React Native.

Anyone use Victory? It looks like it is gaining traction.

For convenience of others, here’s a link to Victory Native’s project site (it’s a react.js library with a native version, so be sure to find the native docs).

Victory is a ReactJS and React Native chart library created by Formidable. It's based on ReactJS and D3, and comes with a slew of fully configurable charts pre-installed.

I've enjoyed using Victory - needs React tho: https://formidable.com/open-source/victory/

Victory is great, it doesn't officially support React 18 yet, you'll get warnings because the peer version is still looking for React 17, but it shouldn't be an issue if you force install. It's really just that the tests won't work with React 18, but it should be fine to use it in your project.

They have an open issue for React 18 support, but they are stuck because they are using Enzyme for unit tests (which is effectively obsolete and will likely never work with React 18). So their plan appears to be to move from Enzyme to RTL first and then support React 18.
