Add the chart
One command adds the Chord component to your project.
npx shadcn add @chartory/chord - 3
Use it
Pass your rows. The props are the Figma properties.
usage.tsximport { Chord } from "@/components/chartory/chord"<Chord data={bridgeFlows} size="m"/>
Props
<Chord>
Every prop but data is a Figma property with the same name and values.
ChordData
The data prop: one object for the whole chart.
ChordNode
One object per entry in nodes.
The data as a JSON Schema: schemas/chord.json
Chord diagram: a React and Figma chart in four sizes
What does a chord diagram show?
A chord diagram places groups around a circle and joins them with ribbons sized by what flows between them, with each group's net in or out. Use it for bridged volume between chains, trade between regions or moves between teams.
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 Chord component?
It is one <Chord> 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 every pair 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?
- Do flows run both ways between peers? Yes means the chord fits.
- Is the circle useful? Yes means the chord fits.
- Is it flows, not correlation? Yes means the chord fits.
When does another type fit better?
- Sources to outcomes. Use Sankey instead.
- Groups on one line. Use Arc diagram instead.
- Pairs that move together. Use Correlation triangle instead.
Chord questions
Installing, data, Figma and plans.
Yes. It installs through the shadcn registry with the shadcn CLI, and the file lands in your project.
It is free in Hearth and MIT licensed: add the @chartory registry URL once, no token, then run npx shadcn add @chartory/chord. The Installation guide has the steps.
Yes. Connect the Chartory MCP server and ask for the chord chart; the agent runs the same command and you review the diff.
Amounts between every pair of groups. The sample data comes with the component, and the props table lists every field.
XS, S, M and L, in Figma and in code. Each size is laid out again from the data, so text and lines keep their size.
Yes. chart/048-chord-bridge-flows has the same properties as the component.
Yes. Every paint is a token, so the chart follows light and dark mode and the collection you pick.
None for Hearth: it is free in the public registry, no token. The Signal collection (@chartory/signal) comes with Code and Complete.
