Are there any good open source .NET chart components out there that are good for large data plotting and real-time charting? I saw some related topics but they were since 2010 and older, so I'm not sure if they are still valid.

Thanks.

Syncfusion provides a Chart library for all .NET platforms. While not open source, the libraries are available under a community license as well (see details below).

Essential Chart for WPF

Essential Chart for Windows Forms

Essential Chart for ASP.NET

Essential Chart for ASP.NET MVC

Chart Performance

The whole product is available for free through the community license if you qualify (less than 1 million USD in revenue).

Note: I work for Syncfusion.

  • This license is still available in 2020. It's a very powerful product and a bit of a game-changer for hobbyists and small businesses looking to code sophisticated charts and UIs - I'm not aware of anything open-source that's even in the same ballpark.

    This looks very nice but it is neither open source nor community licensed and therefore doesn't address the actual question.

  • We do have a community license. You can find more information about it here ( arction.com/community-license )

  • That appears to cover your Javascript charts while the question was about .NET charting.
