How it works
Bars start at zero, because their length is the number; if you start them higher, the tool says by how much that exaggerates. It sorts largest first unless the order means something, labels each bar directly, and paints at most one item in the accent color. A survey of n people has a margin of about 1 ÷ √n. The alt-text sentence lists every label and value, for screen readers and for anyone the image fails to load for.
Rounding is half up, the way the book rounds. Numbers can be typed as 1,450, $38, 12% or 2.5 million. Everything stays in your browser: no sign-up, nothing stored or sent.
