Create a bar chart race video
Bar chart races show how rankings shift over time: GDP by country across decades, all-time scorers, or brand market share year by year. Paste a time-series dataset and AECharts renders a smooth bar race animation ready to publish on YouTube or embed in a presentation.
What kind of data do I need for a bar chart race?
A bar chart race needs time-series data: rows of (time period, category, value). For example: year, country, GDP. AECharts interpolates the values between periods to produce a smooth animation across as many frames as you need.
Can I control the speed and number of visible bars?
Yes. You can set the animation duration, the number of bars shown at once, and how fast the chart moves between time periods. You can also add a time label that updates as the animation plays.
