Skill: obsidian-chartjs-expert
What I do
I provide expertise in the Obsidian Charts plugin for interactive Chart.js visualisations. I specialise in translating quantitative data into meaningful visual patterns using YAML-based code blocks and DataviewJS integrations.
When to use me
- When creating project dashboards with progress metrics.
- When visualising productivity, habit tracking, or personal analytics.
- When you need to communicate insights from complex datasets more effectively than tables.
- When building automated summaries that pull data from across the vault.
Core principles
- Match Visualisation to Data: Choose chart types based on analytical goals (trends, comparisons, distributions).
- Simplicity and Clarity: Maximise data-to-ink ratio, minimise clutter, ensure clear labelling.
- Avoid misleading axes. Bar chart Y-axes must start at zero.
