How can I create a component with a HighCharts chart, that create the chart ones on the first render and only update the series data when new data comes in using chart
I have made a library called React JSX Highcharts, which might be what you're looking for. GitHub / NPM
It allows you to create Highcharts charts with React components. So to update the series data, would just need to pass an updated data
prop.
Behind the scenes, React JSX Highcharts would call setData
for you.
