Free, open-source React charting library with composable SVG components for line, bar, and area charts.
Recharts is a free, MIT-licensed React charting library built on SVG, with composable components for line, area, bar, and other standard chart types. Charts are customized through component properties and custom sub-components rather than low-level drawing code.
There is no paid tier: the whole library is open source. It relies only minimally on D3 internally, so it covers common dashboard and reporting charts well but lacks some of D3's lower-level flexibility for highly custom visualizations. It fits a React developer who wants standard charts as components rather than hand-rolled SVG or D3 code.

A fully free MIT-licensed library that replaces custom D3/SVG chart code with ready-made React components, at no cost.
Composable components with standard chart types let a React developer render a usable chart through props, without writing low-level D3 code.
Delivers the advertised composable React chart components (line, area, bar) built on SVG as described on the homepage.
Covers standard chart types and custom sub-components well, but relies only minimally on D3 internally and so lacks some of D3's lower-level flexibility for highly custom visualizations.
A fully free, MIT-licensed open-source library with no vendor lock-in: the code and charts stay in the project's own codebase.
