ApexCharts 100% Stacked Bar
Every bar normalises to 100%, turning the chart into a per-row composition view — instead of asking 'how much of each thing did we get?' the viewer asks 'what proportion of this row goes to each segment?'. ApexCharts' 100%-stacked mode auto-computes the per-bar ratios and labels

When to use this template
This visualization helps analysts understand the internal composition of different categories, revealing how the mix of segments varies across them. It's ideal for comparing proportional distributions when the absolute magnitudes of the categories are less important than their internal makeup. An analyst reaches for it to highlight shifts in relative contributions rather than total counts.
- Comparing proportional breakdowns across distinct categories.
- Datasets where absolute totals vary widely but relative mix matters.
- Categorical data with multiple segments per main category.
- Tracking changes in segment proportions over time.
- When the primary question is 'what percentage of X is Y?'.
- Data with a clear grouping variable and a contributing sub-variable.
