Use Cases & Benefits
- A small, fast JavaScript charting library for rendering time series, lines, areas, OHLC, and bar charts using Canvas 2D.
- Delivers exceptional performance with minimal memory usage and fast rendering, outperforming many Canvas-based alternatives without relying on WebGL or WASM.
- Use for building high-performance, interactive financial charts with OHLC and bar visualizations in web applications.
- Use for streaming and live-updating large time series datasets at 60fps with low CPU and memory overhead.
- Use for embedding lightweight, multi-series charts with zoom, multiple axes, and timezone support in analytics dashboards.

From the README
A small (~50 KB min), fast chart for time series, lines, areas, ohlc & bars (MIT Licensed)
uPlot is a fast, memory-efficient Canvas 2D-based chart for plotting time series, lines, areas, ohlc & bars. From a cold start it can create an interactive chart containing 166,650 data points in 25ms, scaling linearly at ~100,000 pts/ms afterwards. In addition to fast initial render, the zooming and cursor performance is by far the best of any similar charting lib; at ~50 KB, it's likely the smallest and fastest time series plotter that doesn't make use of context-limited WebGL shaders or WASM, both of which have much higher startup cost and code size.
