Showing cool charts - meSmashsta - 07-05-2017
I made a website that receives reports e.g a status of a machine, now I think it'll be a lot cooler to show some chart but I don't know what data should it presents.
Should I use line chart and show the generated reports for the past week? Should I use pie chart to show which machine is frequently maintained?
Please suggest what a data should a chart represents to make it useful and informative, thanks in advise guys.
I'mma sleep now, wait for my reply tomorrow, cya guys!

This large depends on the person looking at the page/chart.
No point figuring it out yourself as it will be wrong. I my experience the user always wants something other then a developer can think of.
Speak to your client or user you are creating this for.
