Introduction

DDS Data Visualization components, as an extension of the DDS library, are TypeScript and have a peer dependency on the amCharts v5 library. They don’t require any other third-party libraries or external code. Initialization of the Vanilla components is done through JavaScript commands with the namespace “DDV”. DDV stands for Dell Design System Data Visualization.

  • Each component is built with amCharts 5 and Typescript, then rendered in a canvas element.
  • Members of the accessibility, globalization, and design teams review each component. All published components meet Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA.
  • Components are responsive, accessible, and highly customizable. They work with all modern browsers.

Component code and developer documentation are now hosted in Storybook, an interactive UI tool that isolates components so that they can be built and run independently. Please visit the docs tab in Storybook for the proper JSON structure of each component in the library.
