Time Chart Widget

The Time Chart widget is LogScale's primary visualization tool for temporal data analysis, displaying bucketed time series data along a timeline. It aggregates and visualizes data points across specified time intervals (buckets), making it ideal for tracking trends, patterns, and anomalies over time.
