ChartForgeX - Dependency-Free Chart Rendering for .NET

ChartForgeX renders polished charts, visual blocks, topology diagrams, and static report visuals from .NET without adding runtime chart dependencies to generated output.

The core package renders SVG, script-free static HTML, PNG, BMP, PPM, and TIFF. Optional browser behavior lives in adapter packages, so generated reports can stay static while dashboard hosts can opt into tooltips, selection, zoom, pan, synchronized charts, and export controls.

Install

dotnet add package ChartForgeX

ChartForgeX targets net472, netstandard2.0, net8.0, and net10.0. The core package has no runtime package dependencies.

Package Purpose

    .AddSmoothLine("Warnings", Points(120, 138, 132, 110, 98, 86, 72), ChartColor.FromRgb(251, 191, 36));

chart.SaveSvg("domain-security.svg");
chart.SavePng("domain-security.png");
chart.SaveHtml("domain-security.html");

static ChartPoint[] Points(params double[] values) =>
    values.Select((value, index) => new ChartPoint(index, value)).ToArray();

Output API

Need Use
SVG markup chart.ToSvg() or chart.SaveSvg("chart.svg")
Static HTML chart.ToHtmlFragment(), chart.ToHtmlPage(), or chart.SaveHtml("chart.html")
PNG bytes/file chart.ToPng() or chart.SavePng("chart.png")
Extension-inferred file output chart.Save("chart.svg"), chart.Save("chart.html"), chart.Save("chart.png"), chart.Save("chart.tiff")
