About Bump Chart
Bump Chart shows how rankings change: curved lines draw themselves between rank dots for each period, and hovering or focusing a series lifts it while the others fade back.
Bump Chart is an animated chart for React 19, styled with Tailwind CSS 4 and animated with Motion. It drops into Next.js, Vite, Remix or Astro through the shadcn CLI as a single file you own.
When to use Bump Chart
- League tables and standings.
- Product and app store rankings.
- Search position tracking.
- Team or region performance ranks.
How it works
Ranks are mapped to evenly spaced rows and joined with smooth curves. Every series has a legend button, so the highlight works from the keyboard too, and the draw-in uses path length.
Each chart has a text alternative, hover tooltips are mirrored by keyboard focus where data points are interactive, and colour is never the only way a value is shown. With prefers-reduced-motion on, it holds still or settles instantly instead of animating.
Customizing Bump Chart
Every prop is documented in the API reference above with its type and default. The ones you will reach for first are listed here.
Style it with className like any other element. It only uses your theme's tokens, so it follows light and dark mode without extra work.
