TypeScript library for creating interactive grid heatmaps.

The goal of HeatmapComponent is to provide a tool for visualizing two-dimensional data in the form of grid heatmaps. It focuses on interactivity, performance, and customizability.

• Data type flexibility: appropriate for 2D arrays of numerical data, categorical data, and more complex data types
• Customizable color scheme
• Interactivity:
  • Zooming (currently only in x-axis direction)
  • Markers: highlighting current column, row, and data item
  • Tooltips: showing custom content when the user hovers or clicks a data item
• Efficient canvas-based rendering: smooth visualizations even with millions of data items
• Integrability with other components via exposed events (hover, select, zoom...)
• Extensibility: new behaviors can be added via extensions

• Visualization of data that don't fit into a 2D grid
• Other shapes than rectangles
• Axis labeling
• Data loading or modification via UI
