😍 Quickchart.io: the Cloudinary of Charts —on the fly charts!

GAME CHANGER!

Stumbled upon this site today—a way to create on the fly charts using data from your Glide tables. Images render instantly and you can select one of 14 different charts, customize colors, styles etc all through URL parameters!

The video below shows my first attempt to create a chart from scratch and implement it in Glide. Took me less than 5 minutes.

End result:

Amazing

Super cool.

This is incredible! Now we can actually have better dashboard experiences with chart sizing variations.

Incredible.

@Robert_Petitto love your post Robert. And your enthusiasm :+1::+1:

This is amazing @Robert_Petitto !!!

I love you @Robert_Petitto :heart::joy:

Wow, thats stunning :star_struck:

That was a fantastic ‘stumble’ thanks for sharing, can’t wait to give it a whirl, as always I sense your true passion for design and functionality

Thanks for the kinds words! I’ve wanted to do line charts, radar charts and progress bars of different colors in glide for so long and this will be an easy way to do that! Now just to learn the syntax!!!

Te odio Robert!! :grinning:

Great tip!

We can do this with join component, get more data joining them and put it inside the chart url

You bet. Just used a Join column and the Quickchart “wordcloud” chart and got this!

This blows my mind:

@Robert_Petitto how fast or slow is the chart’s refreshing using the basic plan?

Gracias

Good question. Just discovered this today…let’s test!

This fast:

apparently it also generates QR codes! No scripts or api calls needed!

With joined list and template components I did line chart. Great tools!
