Master React Native Charts | Tutorial for Dynamic Data Visualization
Beto, June 27, 2024 · 21,875 views
A chart is only impressive when it runs on real data. So instead of hard-coded arrays, I wire react-native-gifted-charts to a SQLite database with 1,000 mock transactions and build a weekly income and expense chart that animates as you move through the weeks. Every step is in the video.
If you're building anything that tracks money or time-series data, this is the setup I'd use.
What's inside
- Generating 1,000 rows of realistic test data with Mockaroo
- Inspecting the SQLite database with TablePlus
- Installing gifted-charts with expo-linear-gradient and react-native-svg
- A reusable SummaryChart component fed by SQL queries
- Conditional bar colors and gradients based on values
- Smooth animations when switching between income and expenses
