Helix Toolkit is a collection of 3D components for .NET. -
Win2D
Win2D is an easy-to-use Windows Runtime API for immediate mode 2D graphics rendering with GPU acceleration. It is available to C#, C++ and VB developers writing apps for the Windows Universal Platform (UWP). It utilizes the power of Direct2D, and integrates seamlessly with XAML and CoreWindow. -
Interactive Data Display for WPF
Interactive Data Display for WPF is a set of controls for adding interactive visualization of dynamic data to your application. It allows to create line graphs, bubble charts, heat maps and other complex 2D plots which are very common in scientific software. Interactive Data Display for WPF integrates well with Bing Maps control to show data on a geographic map in latitude/longitude coordinates. The controls can also be operated programmatically. -
NGraphics
NGraphics is a cross platform library for rendering vector graphics on .NET. It provides a unified API for both immediate and retained mode graphics using high quality native renderers. -
LibTessDotNet
C# port of the famous GLU Tessellator - prebuilt binaries now available in "releases" tab -
SciChart
Highest rated & Fastest WPF Charts, used by F1, NASA and more -
AssimpNet
A cross-platform .NET Standard wrapper for the Open Asset Importer ("Assimp"). The library enables importing, processing, and exporting of 3D models for rendering in graphics/game applications. Over 40 formats are supported for importing (e.g. OBJ, FBX, GLTF, 3DS, Collada) and a subset of those formats can be exported to (e.g. OBJ, GLTF, 3DS, Collada). Mesh processing features allow for mesh data to be generated or optimized for real-time rendering.

This project will continue in another repo, please see LiveCharts2 for more info
LiveCharts 1.0 is coming soon (ETA AprilSeptember 2018)!
We are doing a full rewrite of the library with all the learned lessons, the new version is focused on:
* If you own the Geared package the new high performance version is already yours! thank you very much for all your support!
* Portability: In version 0.x it was hard keep WPF, UWP and Winforms versions up to date, in the new version we extracted all the math to a dotnet core project, then we are working on 4 different platfomrs WPF, Xamarin, UWP and the new high performance package.
* Performance: when the library started, performance was not the target, as the library community grow, the Geared package was released (the current high performance version), and it works for many cases, but we want LiveCharts to be the fastest library out there, in the new high performance package we are scaping from WPF performance limitations and drawing everything using DirectX with the well know SharpDx package.
* 3d: 0.x layout was not designed to draw 3d plots, version 1.0 is really flexible and lucky we will be on 3d soon.
* Keep it easy!: Even somethings might change, the idea of the library is the same, we only want to add support for the missing features and/or a better code quality so we can fix issues faster for all the platforms, all the samples will be updated with the new version.
Check out our progress at v1.0 branch.

LiveCharts is
Flexible, Customizable
images in this section are built with LiveCharts, but designed by Kingyo
it is also
Simple, Interactive
As easy as manipulating any generic list in .Net, LiveCharts updates and animates as your data changes in real time, charts are also sensitive to size changes.
/
and of course it also is
Powerful
LiveCharts is not just beauty charts, this example contains 100,000 points, and the chart is being refreshed constantly, we support zooming, panning, multiple axes, sections, merged UIelemnts and much more!
But that is not all, we try to support as many charts as possible, bars, lines, heat maps, gauges, maps:
Road Map
- [x]
Build at least all the features any other charting library does, in WPF and WinForms - [ ] [In progress] Build High performance algorithms
- [ ] [In progress] Expand the library to:
- [x]
WPF - [x]
WinForms - [ ] UWP [In progress]
- [ ] Xamarin
- [x]
- [ ] Release 1.0 in WPF and WinForms, the other platforms will be beta, in case something went wrong.
Support
WPF and Winforms, currenlty the library is in the process to become a cross net library...
Net Version
