## Creating a Chart
It's easy to get started with Chart.js. All that's required is the script included in your page along with a single `<canvas>` node to render the chart.
In this example, we create a bar chart for a single dataset and render that in our page. You can see all the ways to use Chart.js in the [usage documentation](./getting-started/usage.md)
