Pie Chart & Donut Chart using Path in SwiftUI

A pie chart is a visual tool that displays data in a circular format, divided into sectors that represent the relative proportions of each category or value being presented. The entire circle represents the total amount of data being analyzed, while each sector’s size corresponds to the proportion of that data point relative to the total. Pie charts are commonly used to display percentages, but they can also show absolute values. Pie charts are helpful in illustrating patterns, trends, and relationships between different categories in a visually appealing way, making them popular in business, education, and other fields where data analysis is important.

A donut chart is a variation of a pie chart in which a circular pie is hollowed out in the center, creating a “donut” shape. Like a pie chart, it is used to display data in a way that shows the relative proportions of each category or value being presented. However, the space in the center of the chart can be used to display additional information, such as a total value or a label. Donut charts are often used when there are multiple categories with similar values or when there is a need to emphasize the total value.

Today, we will build a pie chart and donut chart using path in SwiftUI. Let’s start with pie chart.
