Weekly rhythm: a React and Figma chart in four sizes

What does a weekly rhythm show?

A weekly rhythm chart lays out a week by day and hour and shades each slot from fewer to more runs, with a marker for now. You see when work happens across the week. Use it for agent runs, jobs and traffic.

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 Weekly rhythm component?

It is one <WeeklyRhythm> component. Its props are the Figma properties with the same names and values, and the props table above lists them. The data is a share of the busiest hour (0 to 1) per weekday and hour.

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 a now marker needed? Yes means the weekly rhythm fits.
  • Is shading enough? Yes means the weekly rhythm fits.
  • Is it a grid, not a ring? Yes means the weekly rhythm fits.

When does another type fit better?

  • A plain grid. Use Heatmap instead.
  • Dots sized by value. Use Punch card instead.
  • Hours around a clock. Use Radial hour heatmap instead.

Weekly rhythm questions

Installing, data, Figma and plans.

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