The Xamarin.Forms area chart is like a line chart that represents time-dependent data and shows the trends at equal intervals, but it fills the area. It can be configured with numerical, category, date time, or logarithmic axis for the graph.
Rotate the area chart to plot data in the vertical direction and view data from a different perspective.
The Xamarin.Forms area chart handles empty or null data points elegantly.
Customize the color and border of the area chart using built-in APIs to make it visually unique.
Marks data points with built-in shapes such as circles, rectangles, ellipses, vertical lines, horizontal lines, diamonds, triangles, and pentagons. In addition to these shapes, use images to make the point more attractive.
Use multiple axes to plot different data sets that widely vary from one other.
Easily get started with the Xamarin.Forms Area Chart using a few simple lines of C# code example as demonstrated below,

public ViewModel()
{
Data = new ObservableCollection<Model>()
{
new Model("Jan", 50),
new Model("Feb", 70),
new Model("Mar", 65),
new Model("Apr", 57),
new Model("May", 48),
};
}
}
