D3 js is well known, but it used to not work with React because of Reacts's virtual dom stuff, D3 works with the dom directly i beleive, i would assume there is an npm package that allows u to work with both,

React Charts library was nice if i remember correctly

Get React to give you a DOM reference and then run the D3 code with it during a post render callback or effect.

You can just use D3 for the layout work and render with an SVG in react and it works really well.
