Microcharts
Microcharts is an extremely simple charting library for a wide range of platforms (see Compatibility section below), with shared code and rendering for all of them!
Read our wiki to learn more about how to use this library.
About
This project is just simple drawing on top of the awesome SkiaSharp library. The purpose is not to have an heavily customizable charting library. If you want so, simply fork the code, since all of this is fairly simple.

Install
Available on NuGet:
The native iOS and Android views — Microcharts.iOS and Microcharts.Droid — are published to the GitHub Packages feed rather than nuget.org. Installing them requires adding the org feed as a NuGet source and authenticating with a GitHub token that has read:packages.
.NET MAUI
Don't forget to call UseMicrocharts() on MauiAppBuilder in the MauiProgram class.

Compatibility
Microcharts 3.1 targets .NET 10 and .NET 11, with separate assets for both
framework versions in each NuGet package.
Built-in views are provided for the following, all rendered with SkiaSharp:
- .NET MAUI (Windows, Android, iOS, and Mac Catalyst)
- .NET for iOS — native
Microcharts.iOS view
- .NET for Android — native
Microcharts.Droid view
MAUI dependencies are selected per target framework. MAUI apps must reference
Microsoft.Maui.Controls at the version below or a newer compatible version:
| Target framework | Minimum MAUI version |
|---|
| .NET 10 | 10.0.130 |
| .NET 11 | 11.0.10 |
Building
Install the .NET 11 SDK specified in global.json, then run:
dotnet workload install android ios maccatalyst maui
dotnet build Sources/Microcharts.Maui/Microcharts.Maui.csproj --configuration Release
Library builds compile both .NET 10 and .NET 11 targets. On Windows, build the full
solution with dotnet build Sources/Microcharts.slnx --configuration Release.
On macOS, Apple sample apps require Xcode 26.0 for .NET 10 or Xcode 27.2 for .NET 11.
Select the matching Xcode, then run bash buildpackages-maui.sh net10.0 or
bash buildpackages-maui.sh net11.0. Each command packs both framework versions
and builds samples for the selected framework. Windows targets are built on Windows.
