Preview

This wrapper requires ApexCharts. Run `npm install apexcharts` and make it available on `window` to render charts; until then a loading state is shown.

Controls

Theme

Surface

Direction

Viewport

Device view renders in an isolated frame so real responsive breakpoints apply. Switch to Full for overflowing popovers.

Installation

terminal

php artisan ui:add chart

Behavior layer (Alpine)

This component installs a self-registering Alpine module to resources/js/ui/chart.js. Import the behavior layer once from your bundle so it loads (it hooks alpine:init):

resources/js/ui/index.js JS

import './chart.js';

Guidance

Chart and visual analytics

Reveal a visual trend, distribution, flow, or relationship.

Use when

Use when trend, distribution, flow, intensity, or relationship questions are easier to answer visually than in raw numbers. Do not use a chart when users mainly need exact lookup or when a single metric would be clearer as text or a stat.

Avoid when

Choose a chart only when the user’s question is inherently visual, such as trend, distribution, flow, or relationship.

Task length: medium
Interaction cost: medium
Interruptiveness: none
Input precision: none
Mobile / touch risk: high
Accessibility risk: high
Needs background context: No
Comparison needed: Yes

Preferred alternatives

Table for exact lookup
Stat for a single value

Anti-patterns

Decorative charts without a meaningful question

API

manifest knowledge + registry-derived coverage

Props

Prop	Type / values	Default	Description
type	bar\|line\|area\|pie\|mixed	bar	ApexCharts chart type.

Capabilities

wcag-2.2-aa-target interactive responsive rtl darkMode localized

Behavior

Uses server-rendered Blade and semantic HTML.
Loads ApexCharts, applies token-aware defaults, renders into the referenced container, and shows a fallback while loading or on error.
Installs a JavaScript behavior module when the registry item includes resources/js/ui files.
Declares registry capability flags: a11y, interactive, responsive, rtl, darkMode, localized.

Usage

previews.components.chart.default.blade.php Blade

<div class="space-y-4">
    <x-ui.chart
        type="bar"
        :height="300"
        :series="[['name' => __('Revenue'), 'data' => [30, 40, 35, 50, 49, 60, 70]]]"
        :options="['xaxis' => ['categories' => ['Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun', 'Jul']]]"
        label="{{ __('Monthly revenue') }}"
    />

    <p class="text-sm text-muted-foreground">
        {{ __('This wrapper requires ApexCharts. Run `npm install apexcharts` and make it available on `window` to render charts; until then a loading state is shown.') }}
    </p>
</div>

Accessibility & localization

WCAG 2.2 AA RTL-ready data-slot Keyboard focus-visible Localized labels

Accessibility target: wcag-2.2-aa-target.
Uses semantic HTML and a stable data-slot attribute for styling/scripting hooks.
Focus-visible rings use the ring token so keyboard focus is always visible.
Disabled and invalid states are conveyed to assistive tech, not by color alone.
Targets WCAG 2.2 AA; verify contrast in light, dark, admin and customer surfaces above.
Labels go through __() and the component uses logical properties (ms-*, text-start, start-*) so it mirrors correctly — flip the preview to RTL to confirm.

Source

The exact, editable file ui:add writes into your app — copy it or own the whole thing. Previews render this same code; there are no preview-only components.
