Why Sliick Charts?
While powerful libraries like Chart.js or D3.js are popular for standard web development, they often introduce complexity and security hurdles within the Salesforce ecosystem. Sliick Charts was created to provide a high-performance alternative that “just works” on the platform.
Comparison Table
| Feature | Sliick Charts (Native) | External Libraries (e.g., Chart.js) |
|---|---|---|
| Footprint | 0 KB (Zero-dependency) | ~200+ KB (Minified/Gzipped) |
| Security | 100% Native LWC | 3rd Party Script Injection Risk |
| LWS/Locker | Native Compliance | Potential Memory leaks, DOM access errors, and global scope conflicts |
| Data Privacy | Stays in Browser | Potential for external leak via script |
| Setup | Managed Package / Drag & Drop | Static Resources / Apex Controllers |
| Apex Usage | None | Often required for data transformations |
[!IMPORTANT] Why native compliance matters: External libraries often break in Salesforce Lightning Locker or Lightning Web Security (LWS) because they require unauthorized DOM manipulation or direct access to global objects that are sandboxed by the platform. Sliick Charts uses native LWC templates and reactive properties, ensuring 100% compatibility without the need for complex workarounds or security exceptions.
Security & Architecture
Sliick Charts is engineered with a Security-First mindset:
- 100% Client-Side: All data processing and rendering happen in the browser. No data ever leaves your Salesforce instance.
- Zero External API Calls: No Remote Site Settings or CSP Trusted Sites required.
- No Apex Code: Reduces the server-side attack surface to zero. Pure LWC.
- LWS Compliant: Fully compatible with Lightning Web Security (LWS) and Locker Service.
