Canvas page in Power App - additional code-free charts

Canvas page in Power App - additional code-free charts

I was working on a project where I needed to add a radar chart into a canvas page in a Power App. I found a handful of options, but settled on this one for a handful of reasons:

  • Makes use of canvas components
  • Single component provides several chart options
  • Easy-to-update properties
  • Good sample data included in the app

There were some quirks in working with it, but no show-stoppers for a simple MVP. I may fork the repo and suggest some updates, but it’s valuable as-is.

Original blog/announcement

While I was searching around, I found several radar chart options, but the blog for this one gave me the most confidence that I’d be able to use it straight-away. Sure it’s from a couple of years ago, but it’s still a really valuable starting point.

Deployment details are on GitHub

I ended up popping through to the GitHub site. I probably wouldn’t have gone for it except for the strong documentation around each chart type in the /docs folder.
