My process

• I started with simple steps doing the HTML, while using Emmet.Then the css, letting the chart for last, because i knew i would have to use an framework, after testing some charts, most of them took me some time and it was impossible to translate the design, after a time i have decided to use Apexcharts, i have tried to use Styled-Components, but in the end most of styles were done configurating the Apexcharts in Js

Built with

• Semantic HTML5 markup
• CSS custom properties
• Flexbox
• CSS Grid
• Mobile-first workflow
• Vite
• ApexCharts - JS library

What I learned

• I learned how to configure better my project, i've started with simple html and css, after that i tried to create an an component react for the chart, after some testing i realized vanilla would be simplier, both for react and vanilla i used npm Vite.

Continued development

In the future, i wolud like to connect this to another services, and improve the project
