# Pie

Pie charts display data as slices of a circle, showing parts of a whole as proportions.

## When to use

* **Simple part-to-whole relationships** - Show how categories contribute to a total
* **2-6 categories** - Works best with a small number of slices
* **Percentage comparison** - Emphasise relative proportions
* **Single data series** - Show one breakdown at a time

## Basic example

<GraphPreview
  config={{
type: 'pie',
data: {
  columns: [
    { key: 'browser', label: 'Browser' },
    { key: 'users', label: 'Users' },
  ],
  rows: [
    { browser: 'Chrome', users: 12500 },
    { browser: 'Safari', users: 8200 },
    { browser: 'Firefox', users: 3400 },
    { browser: 'Edge', users: 2100 },
    { browser: 'Other', users: 1800 },
  ],
},
}}
/>

```tsx theme={null}
const config: GraphConfig = {
  type: 'pie',
  data: {
    columns: [
      { key: 'browser', label: 'Browser' },
      { key: 'users', label: 'Users' },
    ],
    rows: [
      { browser: 'Chrome', users: 12500 },
      { browser: 'Safari', users: 8200 },
      { browser: 'Firefox', users: 3400 },
      { browser: 'Edge', users: 2100 },
      { browser: 'Other', users: 1800 },
    ],
  },
};
```

## Data labels

Show category labels and percentages on slices:

```tsx theme={null}
const config: GraphConfig = {
  type: 'pie',
  dataLabels: {
    showCategoryLabels: true,
    showDataLabels: true,
    dataLabelFormat: 'percentage',
  },
  data: {
    /* ... */
  },
};
```
