Description

Is this a new component or an extension?

New Component

Existing Component

No response

Describe the feature

We are looking for a Radar chart.

Apache ECharts already supports radar charts and since PF has adopted ECharts for newer chart types (Sankey in #11616, Line), this would be a natural addition.

User Story

As a developer building data-driven dashboards with PatternFly, I want a Radar chart component that follows PatternFly's design system and theming, so that I can visualize and compare multi-dimensional data (e.g., 4-7 metrics across 2-3 items) in a consistent, accessible way without pulling in a separate charting library.

Visuals & Mockups

No response

Interaction States & Variations

ECharts radar chart supports these out of the box — hover tooltips, legend toggling, polygon/circle grid shapes, filled/stroke styles, multi-series overlay, etc. PF would just need to wrap it with PatternFly theming and skeleton/loading state consistent with the existing ECharts components (Sankey, Line).

Research direction

Start by reading the existing ECharts-based Sankey and Line components in patternfly-react to understand their theming and loading-state patterns. Use the linked Apache ECharts radar documentation to define the component behavior, then ensure the finished chart follows PatternFly theming and includes the expected radar variations and accessible behavior.
