tip

You’re browsing the wiki for Vico 2.0.0-alpha.19. Use the list in the menu to select your Vico version.

Sample app

Included in the Vico repository is a sample app (module sample), which consists of sample charts (package charts). It uses Jetpack Compose, but each chart has a Compose version and a view version. The sample app is the most practical learning resource for Vico. By browsing through the sample charts and checking how they’re implemented, you’ll get a feel for how the library works and learn how to use many of its features.

You can download the APK. To view the sample app’s code in Android Studio, clone the Vico project, switch to the right tag, open the project in Android Studio, and take a look in the sample module. The charts package is at sample/src/main/java/com/patrykandpatrick/vico/sample/showcase/charts. Click the play button to run the sample app.

git clone https://github.com/patrykandpatrick/vico
