[Discussion] Apache ECharts 6.0 Feature Discussion

[Ovilia]

Apache ECharts 5.0 was released in December 2020, and now it's time for the next major version: 6.0!

We are excited to announce that we plan to release Apache ECharts 6.0 in the first quarter of 2025. We have put together a list of features that we intend to include in this upcoming release.

We would love to hear from you about which features you are most excited about and looking forward to using. Please share your thoughts and let us know what you think!

It's important to keep in mind that most of our contributors work on ECharts in their free time, so some features may take longer to implement than others. If you are passionate about a particular feature and would like to help us bring it to life, we warmly welcome you to join our community and contribute to the development of ECharts 6.0!

Great to hear and see the amazing progress.
For us most important would be to get this issue here solved:
#16825 -> There is already a PR and it is really sad to look at these amazing charts and seeing the overlap most of the time.
Less important but would be nice to see it merged at some point: #17579 (comment)
Other issues we would profit from are:
#16744 (comment)
#13759 (comment)

I appreciate the great work you are all doing and happy to contribute further if we see progress on the things we already contributed.

Greetings,
Daniel

I hope this feature can be added： #18157，thanks！

I saw that you made some attempts to implement this feature. How about making it to be a pull request?

[AAravind27]

Those are some great features you have on list. Would it be possible to revisit #19182 ? Thanks!

请问echarts有交流群吗

Could you add a sizeMap similar to the visualMap component to map sizes? For example, would it be more intuitive to use a sizeMap for the legend of the point sizes in the bubble plot?

[ianzone]

There could be a react component version.

I would really like to see the hierarchical/grouped bar chart like mentioned in these issues: #4902 #13839 #18923 #19441
Unfortunately three of those issues don't seem to be posted as feature requests, but I think the use case is quite common as I also needed it for one of my projects that use Apache ECharts.

I think fixing the tree collapse problem is long overdue: PR #18491 for #17266 and others.
Tree has now another serious one #20136.
