Alert fire strip: a React and Figma chart in four sizes

What does an alert fire strip show?

An alert fire strip gives each rule a row of its fires over a week, with the count and the share acted on. Noisy rules that nobody acts on stand out. Use it for alert hygiene and on-call reviews.

Chartory ships it as a Figma component and a React component with the same name. The code installs from the shadcn registry with one command and lands in your project as a file you own.

What is the Alert fire strip component?

It is one <AlertFireStrip> component. Its props are the Figma properties with the same names and values, and the props table above lists them. The data is fires per rule per day, and the share acted on.

Sizes XS, S, M and L re-lay the chart out from the data instead of scaling it, so labels stay readable at every size.

When should I use it?

  • Is it per rule? Yes means the alert fire strip fits.
  • Is acted-on part of it? Yes means the alert fire strip fits.
  • Is it fires, not uptime? Yes means the alert fire strip fits.

When does another type fit better?

  • Alerts by route. Use Replay lanes instead.
  • Alerts per threshold. Use Threshold sweep instead.
  • Status per day. Use Uptime bars instead.

Alert fire strip questions

Installing, data, Figma and plans.

  • Yes. It installs through the shadcn registry with the shadcn CLI, and the file lands in your project.
