+The Qt Charts module provides a set of easy-to-use chart components. It uses
+the Qt Graphics View Framework to integrate charts with modern user interfaces.
+Qt Charts can be used as QWidgets,
+:class:`QGraphicsWidget<PySide6.QtWidgets.QGraphicsWidget>` , or QML types.
+Users can easily create impressive charts by selecting one of the themes.
+
+Getting Started
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+To include the definitions of modules classes, use the following
+directive:
+
+ ::
+
+ from PySide6 import QtCharts
+
+The module also provides `QML types <https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtcharts-qmlmodule.html>`_ .
+
+.. note:: An instance of QApplication is required for the QML types as the
+ module depends on Qt's \l{Graphics View Framework} for rendering.
+ QGuiApplication is not sufficient.
