A doughnut chart represents a circular piechart-like visualization of data in a round figure with different colors or part of the circle represents an element with the area covered respective to their values.
DevExpress: DevExpress is a package for controlling and building the user interface of Windows, Mobile, and other applications.
Doughnut Charts: Doughnut charts are the modified version of Pie Charts with the area of center cut out. A donut is more concerned about the use of an area of arcs to represent the information in the most effective manner instead of a Pie chart which is more focused on comparing the proportion area between the slices.
Prerequisites
Approach
To create a Doughnut chart in React using material UI and DevExpress, we will install the devexpress and MUI packages first. Then create dummy data in the form of an array of objects with numeric values and represent them on the doughnut chart using the Chart component and respective attributes.

npx create-react-app foldername
