Design Brief

  • Components are freely composed within a Frame. Each component may have its dedicated data.
  • All charts are translated into a render pipeline which contains only graphic primitives: areas, points and lines.
  • Render Pipeline are visualized in layers, in format of canvas render queue or SVG/HTML elements.

Other thoughts:

  • when render pipeline is rendered in canvas, when can improve performance with reqAnimationFrame. This is beyond the scope of react rendering
  • when render pipeline is rendered in SVG/HTML, it is under react's control
