SwarmPlot

@nivo/swarmplot

A swarm plot component which can also be used to make a beeswarm plot when using a single group.

This chart can display 2 data dimensions, a categorical one: groups, and a quantitative one: values.

You can optionally add a third quantitative dimension if you enable dynamic node size, please have a look at the size property for further information.

You can also enable a voronoi mesh to capture user's interactions, using the useMesh property.

This example uses 3 dimensions, the grouping is done by the group property while the value is determined by the price property, node size is dynamic and depends on the volume property.

Under the hood, this chart uses d3-force with a simulation involving collisions and x/y forces, the quality of the simulation can be adjusted, the strength of the value force too.

The responsive alternative of this component is ResponsiveSwarmPlot.
