Date Time Scale
This sample uses C# 12 features, it also uses features from the CommunityToolkit.Mvvm package, you can learn more about it here.
This web site wraps every sample using a UserControl
instance, but LiveCharts controls can be used inside any container.

// You can use the DateTimeAxis class to define a date time based axis // mark
// The first parameter is the time between each point, in this case 1 day // mark
// you can also use 1 year, 1 month, 1 hour, 1 minute, 1 second, 1 millisecond, etc // mark
// The second parameter is a function that receives a date and returns the label as string // mark
