Line Chart with Area

This chart uses the showArea option to draw line, dots but also an area shape. Use the low option to specify a fixed lower bound that will make the area expand. You can also use the areaBase property to specify a data value that will be used to determine the area shape base position (this is 0 by default).

Bi-polar Line chart with area only

You can also only draw the area shapes of the line chart. Area shapes will always be constructed around their areaBase (that can be configured in the options) which also allows you to draw nice bi-polar areas.

Overlapping bars on mobile

This example makes use of label interpolation and the seriesBarDistance property that allows you to make bars overlap over each other. This then can be used to use the available space on mobile better. Resize your browser to see the effect of the responsive configuration.

Multi-Line Labels

Chartist will figure out if your browser supports foreignObject and it will use them to create labels that are based on regular HTML text elements. Multi-line and regular CSS styles are just two of many benefits while using foreignObjects!
