Arc diagram: a React and Figma chart in four sizes

What does an arc diagram show?

An arc diagram lines groups up on one axis and joins them with arcs whose width shows how much moves between them. Use it for transfers between wallet types, calls between services or trade between regions.

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 Arc diagram component?

It is one <ArcDiagram> component. Its props are the Figma properties with the same names and values, and the props table above lists them. The data is amounts between pairs of groups.

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?

  • Are flows between groups? Yes means the arc diagram fits.
  • Is one line of groups enough? Yes means the arc diagram fits.
  • Is it flows, not links? Yes means the arc diagram fits.

When does another type fit better?

  • Flows through stages. Use Sankey instead.
  • Flows around a circle. Use Chord instead.
  • A hub and its links. Use Network instead.

Arc diagram questions

Installing, data, Figma and plans.

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