Pine Script vs. Python vs. QuickChart vs. Roy Comparison Chart

Pine Script® is TradingView’s programming language. It allows traders to create their own trading tools and run them on our servers. We designed Pine Script® as a lightweight, yet powerful, language for developing indicators and strategies that you can then backtest. Most of TradingView’s built-in indicators are written in Pine Script®, and our thriving community of Pine Script® programmers has published more than 100,000 community scripts. It’s our explicit goal to keep Pine Script® accessible and easy to understand for the broadest possible audience. Pine Script® is cloud-based and therefore different from client-side programming languages. While we likely won’t develop Pine Script® into a full-fledged language, we do constantly improve it and are always happy to consider requests for new features. Because each script uses computational resources in the cloud, we must impose limits in order to share these resources fairly among our users.

Add charts to emails, reports, and anywhere else. Over 3 billion charts are rendered for users around the world. Generate chart images with a simple, open API. Our chart API generates chart images, QR codes, and more. We're built on Chart.js, the most popular open-source charting library. We'll render any Chart.js configuration. Start by putting your Chart.js definition in a URL. Let's get creative! You can use all static customization options available in Chart.js. Visit our chart gallery to see different chart types and plugins: bar charts, line graphs, pie charts, and much more. QuickChart easily integrates with many no-code tools. Use our no-code chart maker to create custom chart templates that you can embed dynamically in spreadsheets, Airtable, Bubble, AppSheet, Thunkable, and many other no-code tools. Rendering at scale is difficult and resource intensive. We've put a lot of working into taking care of the most difficult parts so you can focus on building your application.
