Struggling with interactive FreshCharts

Hi there I'm trying to display charts in my fresh js project. i want to have them as islands according to the github repo https://github.com/denoland/fresh_charts the /islands/chart.tsx should look like this
import { Chart as default } from "$fresh_charts/island.tsx";
import { Chart as default } from "$fresh_charts/island.tsx";
So i import the library in deno.json
"@fresh-charts/island": "https://deno.land/x/fresh_charts@0.3.1/island.tsx"
"@fresh-charts/island": "https://deno.land/x/fresh_charts@0.3.1/island.tsx"
and bellow is my /island/chart.tsx
import { Chart as default } from "@fresh-charts/island";
import { Chart as default } from "@fresh-charts/island";
But i get a error: Identifier expected. they have little showcase here https://fresh-charts.deno.dev/ What am I doing wrong?? 🙂

Hello! 🦕 Based on the documentation, it seems like there might be a small issue with your import statement in your /islands/chart.tsx file. In JavaScript and TypeScript, default is a reserved keyword and cannot be used as a variable name. When you're importing a default export from a module, you should assign it to a variable with a different name. So, instead of this:
import { Chart as default } from "@fresh-charts/island";
import { Chart as default } from "@fresh-charts/island";
You should have something like this:
import { Chart as ChartIsland } from "@fresh-charts/island";
import { Chart as ChartIsland } from "@fresh-charts/island";
Then, you can use ChartIsland in your code wherever you need to refer to the imported module. I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

@wedman import { Chart as default } from "..." is not valid JavaScript. Specifically the Chart as default is invalid. Did you meant to write import Chart from "..." or if you wanted to re-export it something like export { default as Foo } from "..."?

@marvinh. This is their example on the github page. I am quite new to JavaScript so im having a hard time understanding their README file, and how to use the library.

Looks like the example is wrong

Soooo I'm not completely insane! 😅 Thank you, I guess I will have to try stuff on my own, from now on!

awesome! I found out that the documentation for that module is unavaliable. https://deno.land/x/fresh_charts@0.3.1/island.tsx

import { Chart } from "https://esm.sh/stable/chart.js@4.3.0/auto?target=es2022";

export default function ChartIsland() {
const xyValues = [
{x:50, y:7},
{x:60, y:8},
{x:70, y:8},
{x:80, y:9},
{x:90, y:9},

Just used Chart.js which fresh_chart is built on and it does the job!
