Skill instructions
Reactor Charts The chart surface lives in Reactor.D3.Charts (full guide: docs/guide/charting.md). This skill is the AI-agent quick reference — chart-choice rules, the new View extension points, and the a11y/accuracy rails you should keep on by default. Choose the right chart first Most "my chart looks bad" problems are wrong-chart problems, not styling problems. Cleveland & McGill's perceptual ranking (1984) — accuracy of graphical judgment, best to worst: position on a common scale position on non-aligned scales length / direction / angle area volume shading / color saturation That ordering is why bars and dots win and why pies lose. Translate it into rules of thumb: | Chart | Use when | Avoid when | |---|---|---| | Bar | Discrete categories, time buckets (Q1..Q4), ranked comparison. Default when in doubt. | (Use a different chart if the data is continuous, e.g. dense time-series — line is clearer.) | | Line | Continuous data, many x-values, trends/slopes, autocorrelated series (price
