Tufte is a CDN and Node package that generates clean, Tufte inspired ASCII charts from CSV data. It uses a Mermaid style chart code block: you write a fenced block with a chart type, optional title, and CSV data, and it renders plain text bar, line, sparkline, scatter, histogram, progress, and table charts. The output is pure text, so it works anywhere text renders — READMEs, terminals, diffs, LLM replies, and more. Sparklines can even be used inline via a sparkline: … span.
