# Chart types

Each type page follows the same pattern: identity (incl. option bag) → minimal `chartData` → `seriesData` → bag fields → axes → pitfalls → sample.

The **Type** column links to the docs page. **`chartType`** is the identifier you pass in `chartData`. **Bag** is the `cd.<bag>` object that type reads.

| Type | `chartType` | Option bag | `seriesData` layout | Sample |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| [Clustered bar](https://chartbuddy.io/embed/docs/chart-types/clustered-bar.md) | `clusteredBar` | `bar` | `seriesRows` | [sample](https://chartbuddy.io/embed/docs/samples/clustered-bar.md) |
| [Stacked bar / 100%](https://chartbuddy.io/embed/docs/chart-types/stacked-bar.md) | `stackedBar` · `stackedBar100` | `bar` | `seriesRows` | [sample](https://chartbuddy.io/embed/docs/samples/stacked-bar.md) |
| [Line](https://chartbuddy.io/embed/docs/chart-types/line.md) | `line` | `line` | `seriesRows` | [sample](https://chartbuddy.io/embed/docs/samples/line.md) |
| [Stacked area / 100%](https://chartbuddy.io/embed/docs/chart-types/stacked-area.md) | `stackedArea` · `stackedArea100` | `area` | `seriesRows` | [sample](https://chartbuddy.io/embed/docs/samples/stacked-area.md) |
| [Pie / donut](https://chartbuddy.io/embed/docs/chart-types/pie.md) | `pie` · `donut` | `pie` | `categoryValue` | [sample](https://chartbuddy.io/embed/docs/samples/pie.md) |
| [Scatter / bubble](https://chartbuddy.io/embed/docs/chart-types/scatter.md) | `scatter` · `bubble` | `scatter` | `pointRows` | [sample](https://chartbuddy.io/embed/docs/samples/scatter.md) |

| [Marimekko](https://chartbuddy.io/embed/docs/chart-types/mekko.md) | `mekko` | `mekko` | `seriesRows` | [sample](https://chartbuddy.io/embed/docs/samples/mekko.md) |
| [Bar Mekko](https://chartbuddy.io/embed/docs/chart-types/bar-mekko.md) | `barMekko` | `barMekko` | `widthRowThenHeightRows` | [sample](https://chartbuddy.io/embed/docs/samples/bar-mekko.md) |
| [Combo](https://chartbuddy.io/embed/docs/chart-types/combo.md) | `combo` | `combo` | `seriesRows` | [sample](https://chartbuddy.io/embed/docs/samples/combo.md) |

Shared bags: `bar` covers clustered + stacked (+ 100%); `area` covers both stacked area variants. Mekko and Bar Mekko use different bags.
