Data visualisation

Silverstripe CMS can integrate with third-party tools to visualise your data without custom coding.

Data visualisation

Features and benefits

Easy as pie (chart)

You don’t need data visualisation skills to build a chart in Silverstripe CMS. Import a CSV of your dataset or populate it directly into the CMS and style your chart with your brand colours and font. 

Chart types and formats

Choose from bar, column, or line charts, with more chart styles coming soon. Users can show or hide data within a table, and download chart data in multiple formats. 

Powered by blocks

The data visualisation module gives you all the benefits of using content blocks to design content—retain control of your content, and enjoy the easy editing experience of Silverstripe CMS. 

Customise with integrations

Integrate with the chart library of your choice, like Highcharts, ApexCharts, and Chart.js, and with programming languages like Vue, React, and R. 

Accessible

The data visualisation module is responsive and optimised for assistive technology, including keyboard navigation and screen readers.

Headless content delivery

Headless content delivery lets you build your data collection in Silverstripe CMS and send it to other channels using an API. 

"More and more, my organisation produces data on trends, demographics, and performance. The data visualisation block helps me communicate and share that data in a digestible way."
