LiveCharts2 (v2) is the evolution of LiveCharts (v0), it fixes the main design issues of its predecessor, it's focused to run everywhere, improves flexibility without losing what we already had in v0.
The following image is a preview, v2.0 is beta now, you can install it from nugget: beto-rodriguez#35, it support WPF, WinForms, Avalonia and Xamarin for now, but it will also support WinUI, Uno and MAUI.
here is a preview (1.4MB gif, wait for it to load if you see a blank space bellow this text...):
V0 is built on top of WPF, this has many problems, WPF is not designed for the purposes of the library, it is always tricky to find a solution for the problems of the library.
When we were on v0 and tried to take the library to UWP, we noticed it required a huge effort with the arquitecture the library had in v0. V2 is designed to work on multiple platforms, it requires minimal effort to take the library to a new platform.
Not necessarily, The SkiaAPI makes it much easier to take the library everywhere, but that does not means that LiveCharts2 requires it to work we could easily move to any other drawing engine.
