The World's Fastest WinUI, WPF, WinForms, and MFC C++ Charting Components. GPU compute shader accelerated. Native ARM64. AI-assisted development. Mission-critical quality since 1993.

ProEssentials v11 brings a thirty-year native C++ rendering engine to WinUI 3 and true native ARM64 — presenting directly through a composition swap chain rather than a managed XAML layer. Also new: .NET 10 across every managed interface.

New to WinUI 3? Our winui-starter is a public-domain WinUI 3 template that actually runs — unpackaged .NET 10, a plain .exe, no MSIX, and none of the stock Windows App SDK template's traps. No ProEssentials required.

➡️ WinUI Chart Walk-Through  ·  WinUI Performance Comparison

Founded in 1993, Gigasoft has concentrated exclusively on charting for over 30 years — scientific, engineering, and financial data visualization at a mission-critical level. Prioritizing stability, speed, and rendering intelligence. Fast expert support. No hassle evaluation download.

ProEssentials is architecturally different from every competitor — a native Win32 DLL charting engine with two complete API layers: a hierarchical .NET property interface for WinUI, WPF, and WinForms, and a standard C/C++ DLL API for MFC, Delphi, ActiveX, and any language with DLL FFI capability. Both APIs access the same rendering engine, the same GPU compute shaders, and the same 1,200+ chart properties.

ProEssentials v11 includes a purpose-built AI Code Assistant that transforms how you implement charts. The pe_query.py tool gives AI assistants on-demand access to the complete ProEssentials API — 1,200+ properties, 167 enumerations, and 116 working code examples — with a built-in validation layer that cross-checks every property path against DLL ground truth, eliminating the hallucinated code that plagues generic AI coding.

Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, GitHub Copilot, and Cursor. Included free with every ProEssentials v11 license.

➡️ Explore the AI Code Assistant

Same objects, same property tree, on every interface. Port a chart between WinUI, WPF, and WinForms by changing the control type — the chart code itself does not change.

Native x64, ARM64, and x86 engines. AnyCpu assemblies embed the native engines and unpack the one matching the running process — .NET 10 embeds x64 and ARM64; .NET 8 and .NET 4.8 also embed x86 for 32-bit work.

➡️ Full Platform Coverage Comparison

ProEssentials includes a perpetual license. Pay once. Use forever. Free unlimited support for life. Royalty-free deployment to unlimited end-user machines. No annual renewal. No subscription expiry traps. No reactivation fees.
