Enhancement : Upgrade GSoC Contributions Chart to Gradient Area Visualization #563

Description

@Abhinandankaushik

Describe the feature

The current GSoC Contribution chart uses a basic line graph which looks minimal but lacks visual depth and premium appeal. We propose replacing it with a Smooth Gradient Area Chart to make the visualization more modern, readable, and engaging while keeping the existing dark theme.

Current Behavior

  • Simple line chart with flat styling
  • No gradient, depth, or emphasis on trends
  • Looks basic compared to modern analytics dashboards

Proposed Behavior

  • Replace existing line chart with a Smooth Gradient Area Chart
  • Add subtle gradient fill beneath the line
  • Improve tooltip and hover interactions
  • Keep the same data (2016–2024) and color scheme

Expected Impact

  • More professional and premium look
  • Better trend readability at a glance
  • Aligns with modern dashboard visualization standards
