# Vega examples

Vega is a visualization grammar: you declare data, scales, axes and marks, and it draws exactly what you specified.

These examples run from the smallest complete chart to a radar diagram built from polar coordinates by hand. If a chart here looks like a lot of work, the Vega-Lite version of it probably is not.

## Every example here is real

Each page holds a diagram that is stored, rendered and editable exactly like one you drew yourself. Open any of them, change something, and see what happens. Nothing here is a screenshot.
