## 📦 Installation

  

Install the plugin via NPM:

  

```js
npm install web-performance-plugin
``` 
 

## How to  Use? 🚀

**1️⃣ Initialize Performance Monitoring**

Import the plugin and call the ***initPerformanceMonitor*** function:

```js

import { initPerformanceMonitor } from "web-performance-plugin";

initPerformanceMonitor({

endpoint: "https://your-backend.com/metrics", // (Optional) Backend API to send metrics

onMetric: (metric) => console.log("New Metric Captured:", metric), // (Optional) Local callback

});
```
<br />

### 2️⃣ Generate a Performance Chart

Add a `<canvas>` element in your HTML where the chart will be rendered:

```js
<div>
  <canvas id="performanceChart" width="400" height="200"></canvas>
</div>
```
Then call ***generatePerformanceChart*** to render the metrics:

```js
import { generatePerformanceChart } from "web-performance-plugin";

setTimeout(() => {
  generatePerformanceChart("performanceChart"); // Pass the ID of the canvas element
}, 5000); // Allow time to collect metrics
```
<br />

### 3️⃣ Enable Real-Time Updates

Keep your chart updated with new metrics as they arrive:
```js
import { initPerformanceMonitor, generatePerformanceChart, updateChart } from "web-performance-plugin";

initPerformanceMonitor({
  onMetric: (metric) => {
    console.log("New metric logged:", metric);
    updateChart(); // Refresh the chart dynamically
  },
});

generatePerformanceChart("performanceChart");
```
<br />
<br />
