# Bar Chart Multiple

Two series drawn as grouped bars side by side for each month.

Bar Chart Multiple is an open-source chart from suiss/ui for React, React Native, SwiftUI and Jetpack Compose. The @esuiss/ui CLI copies its source into your project, so you own the code.

Source: https://ui.suiss.app/docs/charts/bar-chart-multiple

**React**

**Example**

```tsx title="components/charts/bar-chart-multiple.tsx"
"use client"

import { Bar, BarChart, CartesianGrid, XAxis } from "recharts"

import {
  Card,
  CardContent,
  CardDescription,
  CardHeader,
  CardTitle,
} from "@/components/ui/card"
import {
  type ChartConfig,
  ChartContainer,
  ChartTooltip,
  ChartTooltipContent,
} from "@/components/ui/chart"

const chartData = [
  { month: "January", desktop: 186, mobile: 80 },
  { month: "February", desktop: 305, mobile: 200 },
  { month: "March", desktop: 237, mobile: 120 },
  { month: "April", desktop: 173, mobile: 190 },
  { month: "May", desktop: 209, mobile: 130 },
  { month: "June", desktop: 264, mobile: 140 },
]

const chartConfig = {
  desktop: { label: "Desktop", color: "var(--chart-1)" },
  mobile: { label: "Mobile", color: "var(--chart-2)" },
} satisfies ChartConfig

export function BarChartMultiple() {
  return (
    <Card variant="filled" size="sm">
      <CardHeader>
        <CardTitle>Multiple series</CardTitle>
        <CardDescription>Desktop and mobile side by side</CardDescription>
      </CardHeader>
      <CardContent>
        <ChartContainer
          config={chartConfig}
          className="aspect-auto h-48 w-full"
        >
          <BarChart
            accessibilityLayer
            data={chartData}
            barGap={3}
            margin={{ top: 10, right: 4, left: 4, bottom: 0 }}
          >
            <CartesianGrid vertical={false} strokeDasharray="2 4" />
            <XAxis
              dataKey="month"
              tickLine={false}
              axisLine={false}
              tickMargin={8}
              interval={0}
              tickFormatter={(value: string) => value.slice(0, 3)}
            />
            <ChartTooltip
              cursor={false}
              content={<ChartTooltipContent indicator="dashed" />}
            />
            <Bar dataKey="desktop" fill="var(--color-desktop)" radius={4} />
            <Bar dataKey="mobile" fill="var(--color-mobile)" radius={4} />
          </BarChart>
        </ChartContainer>
      </CardContent>
    </Card>
  )
}
```

Two series drawn as grouped bars side by side for each month. Pick it over the stacked variant when readers need to compare the series directly rather than see their total.

## Installation

### CLI

```bash title="Terminal"
npx shadcn@latest add @esuiss/bar-chart-multiple
```

Works in any project with a `components.json`. See [Installation](https://ui.suiss.app/docs/installation#add-components) for the one-line registry setup. Or use the suiss/ui CLI:

```bash title="Terminal"
npx @esuiss/ui@latest add charts bar-chart-multiple
```

### Manual

1. Install the dependencies:

```bash title="Terminal"
npm install recharts
```

2. Add the pieces it builds on: [Card](https://ui.suiss.app/docs/components/card), [Chart](https://ui.suiss.app/docs/components/chart).

3. Copy the source into `components/charts/bar-chart-multiple.tsx`:

```tsx title="components/charts/bar-chart-multiple.tsx"
"use client"

import { Bar, BarChart, CartesianGrid, XAxis } from "recharts"

import {
  Card,
  CardContent,
  CardDescription,
  CardHeader,
  CardTitle,
} from "@/components/ui/card"
import {
  type ChartConfig,
  ChartContainer,
  ChartTooltip,
  ChartTooltipContent,
} from "@/components/ui/chart"

const chartData = [
  { month: "January", desktop: 186, mobile: 80 },
  { month: "February", desktop: 305, mobile: 200 },
  { month: "March", desktop: 237, mobile: 120 },
  { month: "April", desktop: 173, mobile: 190 },
  { month: "May", desktop: 209, mobile: 130 },
  { month: "June", desktop: 264, mobile: 140 },
]

const chartConfig = {
  desktop: { label: "Desktop", color: "var(--chart-1)" },
  mobile: { label: "Mobile", color: "var(--chart-2)" },
} satisfies ChartConfig

export function BarChartMultiple() {
  return (
    <Card variant="filled" size="sm">
      <CardHeader>
        <CardTitle>Multiple series</CardTitle>
        <CardDescription>Desktop and mobile side by side</CardDescription>
      </CardHeader>
      <CardContent>
        <ChartContainer
          config={chartConfig}
          className="aspect-auto h-48 w-full"
        >
          <BarChart
            accessibilityLayer
            data={chartData}
            barGap={3}
            margin={{ top: 10, right: 4, left: 4, bottom: 0 }}
          >
            <CartesianGrid vertical={false} strokeDasharray="2 4" />
            <XAxis
              dataKey="month"
              tickLine={false}
              axisLine={false}
              tickMargin={8}
              interval={0}
              tickFormatter={(value: string) => value.slice(0, 3)}
            />
            <ChartTooltip
              cursor={false}
              content={<ChartTooltipContent indicator="dashed" />}
            />
            <Bar dataKey="desktop" fill="var(--color-desktop)" radius={4} />
            <Bar dataKey="mobile" fill="var(--color-mobile)" radius={4} />
          </BarChart>
        </ChartContainer>
      </CardContent>
    </Card>
  )
}
```

4. Update the import paths to match your project.

## Usage

```tsx
import { BarChartMultiple } from "@/components/charts/bar-chart-multiple"
```

```tsx
<BarChartMultiple />
```

Replace `chartData` and rename the series keys in the data, the two `Bar` elements and `chartConfig`. Add a third `Bar` for another series. Tune `barGap` to control the space between bars in a group.

## Notes

Grouped bars get thin quickly; beyond three series or a dozen categories, consider stacked bars or a line chart. The arrow keys move the tooltip between months once the chart has focus.

Two `Bar` series sit next to each other in every month, separated by a small `barGap`. The tooltip lists both values with a dashed indicator.

## Installation

**React Native**

```bash title="Terminal"
npx shadcn@latest add @esuiss-rn/bar-chart-multiple
```

See [Installation](https://ui.suiss.app/docs/installation) for the `components.json` setup. Or use the suiss/ui CLI:

```bash title="Terminal"
npx @esuiss/ui@latest add bar-chart-multiple
```

**SwiftUI**

```bash title="Terminal"
npx @esuiss/ui@latest add bar-chart-multiple --platform swift
```

**Jetpack Compose**

```bash title="Terminal"
npx @esuiss/ui@latest add bar-chart-multiple --platform kotlin
```

The CLI also adds what it builds on: [Card](https://ui.suiss.app/docs/components/card), [Chart](https://ui.suiss.app/docs/components/chart).

### Manual

4. Update the `com.esuiss.ui` package names to match your project.

## Usage

```tsx
import { BarChartMultiple } from "@/components/charts/bar-chart-multiple"
```

```tsx
<BarChartMultiple />
```

Replace `chartData` with your records and change each `dataKey` to match your fields. Add a `Bar` and a `chartConfig` entry for each extra series. The component takes no props.
