## What it does

The skill covers `SankeyComponent` from `@syncfusion/ej2-react-charts`. Your agent gets instructions for wiring nodes and links with `SankeyNodeDirective` and `SankeyLinkDirective`, plus labels, legend, tooltips, click events and styling. Separate sections handle RTL layout, accessibility and diagram export.

Inside sits a set of reference files: `references/getting-started.md` for install and module setup, `references/nodes-and-links.md` for the data shape, then `references/labels-and-positioning.md`, `references/legend-and-display.md`, `references/interactivity.md`, `references/appearance-and-styling.md`, `references/accessibility-and-orientation.md` and `references/export-and-print.md`. API listings for props, events and methods round it out. The agent pulls the one file it needs instead of the whole bundle.

You need React and the `@syncfusion/ej2-react-charts` package in the project, and services such as `SankeyTooltip` and `SankeyLegend` only activate through `Inject`. Skip that and the chart renders without tooltips or a legend — worth checking first when something looks missing.
