Act as a data visualisation developer on Replit. Explain when a pie chart is appropriate and when it is not — many data experts criticise pie charts. Then show me how to build a clean, accessible pie chart using vanilla JavaScript and the HTML canvas or SVG, with labels and percentages, without using any external charting library.
Explain why pie charts are often criticised in data visualisation and what alternatives — such as bar charts or stacked bars — communicate proportions more clearly. Give me practical guidance on choosing the right chart type for different kinds of data in a Replit dashboard app.
Act as a front-end developer. I want to build an interactive animated pie chart in my Replit web app where slices animate in on load and expand on hover, showing a tooltip with the value. Show me how to do this with SVG and vanilla JavaScript, including the maths for converting percentages into arc paths.
Explain the concept of dividing computing resources like slices of a pie — for example CPU time slicing, memory allocation, or splitting API rate limits across users. How does a scheduler allocate a fair share of resources, and how would I implement simple fair-share rate limiting in a Replit Express app?
Act as a recipe app developer. I want to build a recipe web app on Replit where users can store and scale pie recipes — adjusting ingredient quantities based on serving size. Design the data model for a recipe with ingredients and quantities, and show me the JavaScript logic to scale all ingredients proportionally when the serving count changes.
