Subject: [PATCH 01/62] Add useChartLegendData hook and types for standalone
 legend component

- Create ChartLegendOptions interface with showValues, withGlyph, glyphSize, and renderGlyph options
- Add ChartLegendProps interface extending LegendProps with chartId for future context integration
- Implement useChartLegendData hook with overloads for SeriesData[] and DataPoint[]/DataPointPercentage[]
- Support both series data and point data with proper color, shape, and glyph handling
- Include valueDisplay preference for DataPointPercentage items
- Return properly typed LegendItemWithGlyph[] or LegendItemWithoutGlyph[] arrays

-				component:
-					'A flexible legend component that can be customized with different styles and orientations.',
+				component: `
+The Legend component provides a flexible way to display chart legends either as standalone components or integrated with charts through the chart context.
+
+## Key Features
+
+- **Standalone Usage**: Display legends independently from charts
+- **Context Integration**: Automatically retrieve legend data from charts using \`chartId\`
+- **Flexible Positioning**: Place legends anywhere in your layout
+- **Works with Hidden Legends**: Charts with \`showLegend={false}\` still provide data to standalone legends
+- **Full Customization**: Inherits all props from BaseLegend for complete control
+
+## Usage Examples
+
+### Basic Usage with Manual Data
+\`\`\`jsx
+<Legend 
+  items={[
+    { label: 'Series 1', value: '25%', color: '#3858E9' },
+    { label: 'Series 2', value: '35%', color: '#80C8FF' }
+  ]}
+  orientation="horizontal"
+/>
+\`\`\`
+
+### Automatic Data from Chart Context
+\`\`\`jsx
+// Chart registers its legend data with chartId
+<LineChart 
+  chartId="sales-chart" 
+  data={salesData}
+  showLegend={false} // Legend hidden on chart
+/>
+
+// Standalone legend retrieves data automatically
+<Legend 
+  chartId="sales-chart"
+  orientation="vertical"
+  alignmentHorizontal="right"
+/>
+\`\`\`
+
+### Dashboard Layout Example
+\`\`\`jsx
+<div className="dashboard">
+  <div className="charts-grid">
+    <LineChart chartId="revenue" showLegend={false} />
+    <BarChart chartId="units" showLegend={false} />
+    <PieChart chartId="regions" showLegend={false} />

+## Standalone Legend with Chart Context Integration
+
+This example demonstrates the power of the Legend component's context integration feature.
+
+### How It Works
+
+1. **Chart Registration**: When a chart is rendered with a \`chartId\`, it automatically registers its legend data in the chart context
+2. **Data Retrieval**: The Legend component can then retrieve this data using the same \`chartId\`
+3. **Decoupled Display**: The legend can be placed anywhere in your layout, completely independent from the chart
+
+### Key Benefits
+
+- **Flexible Layouts**: Create complex dashboard layouts with centralized legend areas
+- **Consistent Legends**: Multiple charts can share legend styles and positioning
+- **Dynamic Updates**: Legend automatically updates when chart data changes
+- **No Prop Drilling**: No need to pass legend data through multiple component levels
+
+### Code Example
+
+\`\`\`jsx
+// Chart with hidden legend
+<LineChart
+  chartId="standalone-legend-chart"
+  data={lineChartData}
+  showLegend={false}
+  width={400}
+  height={200}
+/>
+
+// Standalone legend that retrieves data automatically
+<Legend 
+  chartId="standalone-legend-chart" 
+  orientation="horizontal" 
+/>
+\`\`\`
+
+### Important Notes
+
+- The chart and legend must be wrapped in the same ChartProvider context
+- The \`chartId\` must match exactly between chart and legend
+- Charts with \`showLegend={false}\` still register their legend data
+- If no chart with the given \`chartId\` exists, the legend will render nothing

+## Real-World Dashboard Example
+
+This example demonstrates a complete dashboard implementation using Legend with chart context integration.
+
+### Key Implementation Details
+
+1. **Chart Setup**: Each chart has a unique \`chartId\` and \`showLegend={false}\`
+2. **Centralized Legends**: All legends are placed in a dedicated sidebar
+3. **Automatic Data Sync**: Legends automatically retrieve data from their respective charts
+4. **Clean Layout**: Charts remain uncluttered while legends are easily accessible
+
+### Benefits of This Approach
+
+- **Consistent Legend Styling**: All legends share the same visual style
+- **Space Efficiency**: Charts can use full width without legend taking up space
+- **Better Mobile Experience**: Legends can be collapsed or repositioned on smaller screens
+- **Easier Maintenance**: Legend updates only need to happen in one place
+
+### Implementation Code
+

+// Charts with hidden legends

Subject: [PATCH 26/62] Add comprehensive test coverage for Legend component

Adds tests for the Legend wrapper component covering:
- Direct items prop usage
- Context-based data retrieval via chartId
- Fallback behavior when context data is unavailable
- Null rendering for edge cases
- Prop forwarding to BaseLegend
- Context data prioritization

All 8 new tests pass, bringing total legend test coverage to 17 tests.

Subject: [PATCH 27/62] Fix standalone legend reactivity issue

The Legend component was not re-rendering when chart data changed in the context because it wasn't properly subscribing to context changes. Added useMemo with context as a dependency to ensure the component re-renders when the chart context updates.

This fixes the issue where standalone Legend components would not display data from charts registered in the same ChartProvider context.

Subject: [PATCH 31/62] Fix BarChart to reuse existing ChartProvider context

Similar to LineChart and PieChart, the BarChart component was always creating its own ChartProvider, which prevented standalone Legend components from accessing chart data when both were wrapped in the same ChartProvider.

Modified BarChart to only create a new ChartProvider when it's not already inside an existing one, allowing it to share context with other components. This fixes the "Sales by Quarter" chart legend items not showing in the dashboard story.

Subject: [PATCH 32/62] Fix pie chart container overflow issues

Added overflow: hidden to both the PieChart CSS and the withResponsive HOC container to prevent chart content from flowing out of its designated container bounds. This fixes the issue where pie charts in constrained layouts (like the dashboard story) would visually overflow their containers.

Subject: [PATCH 33/62] Fix showValues default to preserve previous behavior

Changed the default value of showValues from true to false in useChartLegendData hook to preserve the previous behavior where SeriesData legends don't show data counts by default. This prevents unintended display of data point counts in legends for LineChart and BarChart components.

Addresses Copilot feedback about preserving existing functionality.

Subject: [PATCH 34/62] Keep necessary lint suppression for useMemo
 dependencies

The version dependency is needed to trigger re-renders when charts are registered/unregistered, but ESLint can't detect this relationship. Added a comment explaining why the lint suppression is necessary.

The useMemo needs to recreate the context value when the version changes (via registerChart/unregisterChart calls) to ensure components using the context re-render with updated chart data.

Subject: [PATCH 35/62] Add comprehensive unit tests for useChartLegendData
 hook

Added focused unit tests for the useChartLegendData hook to verify legend item generation for different data types and configurations. Tests cover:

- SeriesData handling (with and without values)
- DataPointPercentage handling (with and without values)
- Glyph handling (with and without glyphs)
- Edge cases (empty, null, undefined data)
- Memoization behavior
- Theme color cycling
- Default option values

Addresses Copilot feedback about adding focused tests for the hook.

1. Fix Legend ref prop error in bar-chart.tsx:
   - Wrapped Legend component in div with ref since Legend doesn't support ref prop
   - This maintains legend height measurement functionality

2. Remove textColor from ChartTheme mock in test file:
   - textColor property doesn't exist in ChartTheme type
   - Removed from mock data to fix type error

Subject: [PATCH 39/62] Remove test additions to reduce PR size

- Remove use-chart-legend-data.test.tsx (271 lines)
- Revert legend.test.tsx to original 9 tests (from 17 tests)
- Tests will be added in follow-up branch add/charts-50-tests

This makes the main PR focus on core functionality for easier review.

Subject: [PATCH 42/62] Fix legend regression caused by removed ChartProvider
 version state
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Restore the version state and setVersion calls in ChartProvider that were
accidentally removed in commit 5511c119. This state is essential for
triggering re-renders when charts register/unregister their legend data,
ensuring standalone legends display correctly in Storybook examples.

Subject: [PATCH 43/62] Fix LineChart context isolation for standalone Legend
 support

LineChart now checks for existing ChartProvider context before creating its own,
allowing Legend components to access chart data when using chartId prop.
This fixes the standalone legend story examples where LineChart was creating
an isolated context that prevented data sharing.

Also exports ChartContext from the providers index for cleaner imports.

Only PieChart actually needs overflow: hidden. Removing it from the responsive
wrapper prevents tooltips and annotations from being cut off in LineChart and
BarChart components.
