Bump chart
Who leads, week by week.
Definition · Updated Nov 2, 2026
A bump chart shows the rank of each item over time instead of its value. Lines cross when items swap places, so you see who moved up, who fell back and how long a lead lasted. Use it for leaderboards, market share ranks and search positions.
Pay once. Every update included.

When to use
Rank, not size.
Three signs it fits, and three signs another type fits better.
Is the rank enough without the values?
Ranks hide how far ahead the leader is.
Yes: Keep the bump
Code and Figma
One name in Figma and in code.
Every Figma property is a prop with the same name and values. One command installs it.

Something else?
hello@usechartory.comA line chart plots the value. A bump chart plots the position, so every item takes one row per period and a crossing means two items swapped places.
Not as a shared place: every item takes its own row in each period. Break a tie by the value behind the rank, or by name, before you pass the data in.
One data object in the sample’s shape: items with a rank per period. The docs page lists every field and links its JSON Schema; the sample data comes with the component, so you can start from it and swap in your own.
Series take the preset’s data colours in order, and states such as up, down or warning take its status colours. Change the preset in Figma or in code to recolour every chart at once.
XS, S, M and L, in light and dark. Each size is laid out again from the data, so text and lines keep their size.
Yes. It plays in when it scrolls into view, and when the data changes every mark moves from its old place to its new one. With reduced motion on, it does not move.
Yes. The React component is free in the public registry in Hearth, no token needed; Signal comes with Code and Complete. The Figma component comes with Figma and Complete.
Ask for it by name. The MCP server tells the agent what data it needs and runs the same command: npx shadcn add @chartory/bump. You review the diff.
