The front page could use some examples and templates
When visiting the demo site: https://www.chartgpt.dev/
I want to try it but it's a bit overwhelming giving me such a blank canvas.
I don't know what I can do with it.
- Can it just make a bar chart, or can it do line charts?
- How much data can I reasonably add to it?
- Can I add multiple values and change the appearance?
- What kind of questioning leads to the best results?
- Whats the best format to input for long-form content?
Etc, etc. Adding some examples would help people want to try it and see if it's right for them.
Also not many people have some random data they could toss in on-hand, so providing some templates would be helpful.
We as community can also help with documentation! @whoiskatrin is busy working on enhancements and changes, addressing feedback. Maybe we could (with help of ChatGPT ;)) give it some clarity. I think it's pretty cool to know what works and doesn't work, but our experiments could provide examples, perhaps in a wiki page or similar, for what works and what doesn't. Anecdotally, I did see line, bar, pie charts work but dot plot of matrix did not.
@dantheman82 appreciate it!
@leafstrat, working to do an update with more examples on the website and supported charts. It's been a bit much and lots of people request a lot of features. I will do my best to implement them ASAP

Started compiling a bit of a list as I initially tried out Chart-GPT. Here's a few if helpful:
- create a bar chart with #FF5733 colored bars. Data is Tuesday 2; Wednesday 3; Thursday 4
- create a line chart with a green line. Data is a - 79; b - 32; c 54
- create a bar chart plotting the deficit of the US government from 1990 to 2000 (works for widely known data until cut off date for new data for chat GPT)
- a scatter chart with values from the below csv with a header row: monday, tuesday, wednesday 1,2,3 3,2,1
In the new version we added:
- A few prompts to start out with
- The ability to switch between charts even after generated
