You just create a square where the plugin can paste the design and input all the variables. 

You can customize the data, the colors, you can add different gradients and pretty much anything else you can thing of. 

And once it's imported if you're looking to edit the charts even more you can just double click on them to split the layers and make further edits. Maybe you want to remove guidelines or make them more thick, you can easily do it with the stroke tool from the right panel.

You have bar charts, line charts, pie charts, even trading candle charts, rings, maps, bubbles. Every single type of chart you can think of - it's all there. You can even randomize data points if you want placeholder values. You can also create color templates which you can use globally so you don't have to manually input colors on each chart.
