Overview

The Stream Graph Generator creates visually engaging, stacked area charts that represent time-series data through smooth, flowing curves. It is an ideal tool for visualizing how different categories evolve and fluctuate over time, providing a clear view of trends and volume changes.

When to use

  • When you need to visualize the relative changes in volume for multiple categories over a specific time period.
  • When you want to highlight trends and patterns in time-series data using a fluid, organic aesthetic.
  • When you need to present stacked data in a way that emphasizes the overall shape and flow rather than just individual data points.

How it works

  1. 1Input your time-series data as a JSON array or a simple name-value list.
  2. 2Customize the visual output by selecting a color scheme, baseline type, and chart dimensions.
  3. 3Toggle display options like grid lines and series labels to refine the presentation.

Use cases

  • Tracking website traffic sources over several months to see which channels are growing.
  • Visualizing monthly sales performance across different product categories to identify seasonal trends.
  • Displaying shifts in market share for various competitors over a multi-year period.
