Thanks to @Julien76 for pointing out the ambiguity. The comparison now names the optional Canvas 2D renderer and explicitly says there is no WebGL renderer. This does not make a roadmap commitment.

Fixes #241.

AI review notes:
Updated the shared comparison capability data, the canonical documentation, and its generated package copy.
The documentation contract passed for 105 pages, 55 catalog examples, 32 runnable groups, and 8 standalone examples. Formatting and diff checks passed.
No runtime source, dependencies, size limits, or benchmark tolerances changed. Bundle and runtime effects were assessed by inspecting the docs-only diff, not by running benchmarks.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Documentation
  • Updated the renderer comparison to clarify that TanStack Charts offers optional Canvas 2D rendering and does not provide a WebGL renderer.
  • Renderer availability is now distinguished by output type across the compared libraries, including optional, selected-chart, and no first-party renderer cases.
  • Existing framework-neutral core and licensing information remains unchanged.

📝 Walkthrough

The comparison tables now identify TanStack Charts’ optional Canvas 2D renderer and state that it has no WebGL renderer. The benchmark capability entry uses the same description.

Changes: Renderer capability descriptions

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Update renderer capability descriptions docs/comparison.md, packages/charts-core/docs/comparison.md, scripts/benchmark/comparison-capabilities.mjs	The comparison documentation and benchmark entry specify optional Canvas 2D support and no WebGL renderer for TanStack Charts. The top-level comparison also clarifies renderer availability for other libraries.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #241 requires documentation to distinguish Canvas renderer support from WebGL support. The PR changes the shared capability entry to Optional Canvas 2D; no WebGL renderer. It updates both docs/comparison.md and packages/charts-core/docs/comparison.md with the same wording. The change directly clarifies the comparison and makes no roadmap claim.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The diff changes only the comparison capability declaration and its two documentation copies. The table alignment changes support the updated documentation. No runtime source, dependency, benchmark, or unrelated feature change is present.
