Realtime Radial Gauges and Fifo Scrolling Charts Dashboard - Angular

Overview

This Angular example demonstrates how to integrate SciChart's polar gauge and FIFO chart components in a standalone application. The implementation leverages Angular's component architecture with SciChart's high-performance rendering.

Technical Implementation

The solution uses:

Features and Capabilities

Highlights include:

  • Real-time data binding between components
  • Responsive design using relative surface positioning
  • Type-safe configuration with Angular's TypeScript support
  • Performance optimization through WebAssembly rendering

Integration and Best Practices

Angular-specific considerations:

  • Proper use of standalone components
  • Async initialization pattern
  • Memory management with ngOnDestroy
  • Efficient change detection strategies
