what is pizza fr?

Pizza is a tool for creating pie charts (and donut charts) on websites that prioritizes simplicity and visual customization. Instead of wrestling with JavaScript configuration objects, you define your chart data directly in your HTML using a simple list, then style it with CSS like any other web element. The chart renders as an interactive, responsive graphic that adapts to different screen sizes. Here's how it works in practice. You create an unordered list with data values and labels, for example, a list of animals with numbers representing population counts. That list points to a container div elsewhere on your page where the pie chart will appear. Pizza reads your HTML markup, calculates the slice sizes based on your values, and draws the chart using SVG (a vector graphics format). Once initialized with a single line of JavaScript at the bottom of your page, the chart is live and ready to style. If you want a donut chart instead of a pie, you just add an option, no code rewrite needed. A product manager building a dashboard, a founder creating an analytics page, or a designer wanting visual control over charts would benefit from this approach. The setup is straightforward enough for someone who knows HTML and CSS but isn't comfortable with complex JavaScript libraries. You could have multiple charts on one page, each with its own legend and styling. The README mentions you can also pass data programmatically as JavaScript objects if you prefer not to embed values in HTML. The project uses Snap SVG, Adobe's lightweight graphics library, as its foundation, and it's written in a way that emphasizes CSS styling over rigid JavaScript templates. Contributing requires Ruby and Bundler for development, though end users only need a web browser and the Pizza library itself.
