Sankey chart

Sankey diagrams use weighted paths to show the magnitude of flow between stages. Use them to understand contributions, transitions, and losses across a system. The nodes represent the categories, the flows depict the connections between categories, and the width of the flows shows the quantity.

Sankey charts are a great way to visualize cash flows, resource allocation, or revenue distribution between various dimension categories
