> I often need a quick chart for a README file, a Slack message, or a simple presentation, and firing up Google Sheets or Excel always felt like overkill.

I totally get this! At the same time, I often find I don’t even need actual numbers—just labeling the X and Y axes and describing the general shape of the line is enough to communicate the idea. Not sure how to do that though.

Thank you so much for your feedback!

Do you mean removing the numbers on the bars? If so, would you still need the numbers on the x or y axis?
