Angular Impulse Chart

Angular Impulse Chart

Overview

This example demonstrates how to create an Angular Impulse Chart using SciChart.js, a high-performance JavaScript charting library. The chart is seamlessly integrated into an Angular application by leveraging the ScichartAngularComponent, providing a dynamic visualization of an impulse (stem) chart.

Technical Implementation

The chart is asynchronously initialized within an Angular component by calling SciChartSurface.create(), which sets up a WebGL-powered WASM context. Numeric axes for both the X and Y dimensions are configured using the NumericAxis constructor as detailed in the Numeric Axis Documentation. The data series is generated by calculating sine and logarithmic values, and a highly efficient FastImpulseRenderableSeries is rendered with a custom wave animation effect, as described in the Animations API.

Features and Capabilities

The implementation includes several advanced features such as interactive chart modifiers: ZoomPanModifier, ZoomExtentsModifier, and MouseWheelZoomModifier, which enhance user experience by enabling smooth zooming and panning. These interactive capabilities are further illustrated in the ZoomPanModifier Documentation. Additionally, the example demonstrates performance optimization by harnessing WebGL and WebAssembly technologies to deliver real-time, high-performance rendering even during dynamic data updates.

Integration and Best Practices

Integration is achieved by utilizing the ScichartAngularComponent available on scichart-angular, ensuring a clean and modular Angular component design. The asynchronous initialization pattern adopted here follows the best practices outlined in the Getting Started with SciChart JS guide, ensuring that resources are properly managed and disposed of when no longer needed. This example serves as a valuable reference for developers looking to implement responsive and interactive charts in Angular applications using SciChart.js.
