    The Qt Charts module provides a set of easy-to-use chart components. It uses
    the Qt Graphics View Framework to integrate charts with modern user
    interfaces. Qt Charts can be used as QWidgets, QGraphicsWidget, or QML
    types. Users can easily create impressive charts by selecting one of the
    themes.

    \include maintenance-phase.qdocinc

    The Qt Charts QML API is an intuitive and simple way to show charts in your
    QML applications.

    This example shows how to create a simple line chart:

    \section1 Using the Module

    \section2 QML API

    \include {module-use.qdocinc} {using the qml api} {QtCharts}

    \note An instance of QApplication is required for the QML types as the module
    depends on Qt's \l{Graphics View Framework} for rendering. QGuiApplication
    is not sufficient. However, projects created with Qt Creator's
    Qt Quick Application wizard are based on the Qt Quick template that
    uses QGuiApplication by default. All the QGuiApplication instances
    in such projects must be replaced with QApplication.

    \section2 C++ API

    \include {module-use.qdocinc} {using the c++ api}

    \section3 Building with CMake

    \include {module-use.qdocinc} {building with cmake} {Charts}

    \section3 Building with qmake

    \include {module-use.qdocinc} {building_with_qmake} {charts}
