Is there a free chart report tool on ASP.NET MVC?

Can anyone recommend a free tool for generating Charts comp开发者_运维技巧atible with ASP.NET MVC?

Take a look at this free web control from Microsoft:

I tried it with regular web application, not MVC though. Works alright, a little finicky in some details.

What kind of charts you need to deal with? Some time ago I was looking for Gantt chart control, and really did not find any good free ones.

Use Google Chart Tools.

To clarify, GCT isn't specific to ASP.NET MVC. It's a hosted thing that you can call with Javascript. I've use it in MVC and regular ASP.NET project alike. Very clean and nice.

For instance, open your browser and go here:

https://chart.apis.google.com/chart?cht=p3&chd=t:60,40&chs=250x100&chl=Hello|World

You'll see this:

Google charts

The advantages of the Google Chart Tools are:

• A rich gallery of visualizations provided as:
  • Image charts - using a simple URL request to a Google chart server
  • Interactive charts - using a Google developed JavaScript library
  • Can read live data from a variety of data sources
  • Simple to use and free

you can use google chart tool. its easy to use and woks good. for refrence you can go through below url
