Infographics convert data, information, and knowledge into perceptible visual language. They combine visual design with data visualization, compressing complex information with intuitive symbols to help audiences quickly understand and remember key points.
Infographic = Information Structure + Visual Expression
This task uses
AntV Infographic to create visual infographics.
Before starting the task, you need to understand the AntV Infographic syntax specifications, including template list, data structure, themes, etc.
Specifications
AntV Infographic Syntax
AntV Infographic syntax is a custom DSL used to describe infographic rendering configurations. It uses indentation to describe information, has strong robustness, and is convenient for AI streaming output and infographic rendering. It mainly contains the following information:
- template: Use templates to express the text information structure.
- data: Infographic data, including title, desc, data items, etc. Data items typically contain fields such as label, desc, icon, etc.
- theme: Theme contains style configurations such as palette, font, etc.
For example:
plain
infographic list-row-horizontal-icon-arrow
data
title Title
desc Description
lists
- label Label
value 12.5
desc Explanation
icon document text
theme
palette #3b82f6 #8b5cf6 #f97316
Syntax Specifications
-
The first line must be
infographic <template-name>
, template selected from the list below (see "Available Templates" section).
-
Use
/
blocks, with two-space indentation within blocks.
-
Key-value pairs use "key space value"; arrays use
as entry prefix.
-
icon uses icon keywords (e.g.,
).
-
should contain title/desc + template-specific main data field (not necessarily
).
-
Main data field selection (use only one, avoid mixing):
- →
- → (optional )
- → (supports for grouped comparisons), can contain multiple comparison items
- → (each item corresponds to an independent hierarchy, each level can contain sub-items, can be nested up to 3 levels)
- → single (tree structure, nested through );
- → + ; simple relation diagrams can omit , using arrow syntax in relations
- → (numeric statistics, optional )
- Use as fallback when uncertain
-
/
compare-hierarchy-left-right-*
binary templates: must have two root nodes, all comparison items hang under these two root nodes' children
-
: use single
, nested through
(do not repeat
)
-
is used to customize themes (palette, font, etc.)
For example: dark theme + custom color scheme
plain
infographic list-row-horizontal-icon-arrow
theme dark
palette
- #61DDAA
- #F6BD16
- #F08BB4
-
Use
theme.base.text.font-family
to specify font, such as handwriting style
-
Use
to select built-in styles and pass parameters
Common styles:
- : hand-drawn effect
- : pattern fill
- / : linear/radial gradient
For example: hand-drawn style (rough)
plain
infographic list-row-horizontal-icon-arrow
theme
stylize rough
base
text
font-family 851tegakizatsu
-
Do not output JSON, Markdown, or explanatory text

Generation Process
Step 1: Understand User Requirements
Before creating an infographic, first understand the user's needs and the information they want to express, in order to determine the template and data structure.
If the user provides a clear content description, it should be broken down into a clear and concise structure.
Otherwise, clarification from the user is needed (e.g., "Please provide a clear and concise content description.", "Which template do you want to use?")
- Extract key information structure (title, desc, items, etc.).
- Clarify required data fields (title, desc, items, label, value, icon, etc.).
- Select appropriate template.
- Describe infographic content using AntV Infographic syntax .
Key Note: Must respect the language of user input. For example, if the user inputs in Chinese, the text in the syntax must also be in Chinese.
Step 2: Render the Infographic
When you have the final AntV Infographic syntax, you can generate a complete HTML file following these steps:
- Create a complete HTML file with the following structure:
- DOCTYPE and HTML meta (charset: utf-8)
- Title:
- Include AntV Infographic script:
https://unpkg.com/@antv/infographic@latest/dist/infographic.min.js
- Create container div with id
- Initialize Infographic (, )
- Replace with actual title
- Replace with actual AntV Infographic syntax
- Add SVG export functionality:
const svgDataUrl = await infographic.toDataURL({ type: 'svg' });
Reference HTML template:
html
<div id="container"></div>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/@antv/infographic@latest/dist/infographic.min.js"></script>
<script>
const infographic = new AntVInfographic.Infographic({
container: '#container',
width: '100%',
height: '100%',
});
document.fonts?.ready.then(() => {
infographic.render(`{syntax}`);
}).catch((error) => {
console.error('Error waiting for fonts to load:', error);
infographic.render(`{syntax}`);
});
</script>
-
Use the Write tool to generate HTML file, named as
-
Show to user:
- Generate file path and prompt: "Open directly with a browser to view and save as SVG"
- Output syntax and prompt: "Tell me if you need to adjust template/colors/content"
Note: The HTML file must include:
- SVG export via export button
- Container is responsive, both width and height are 100%
