+### Shapes for the unit chart
+
+`apexcharts/unit-shapes` is a companion kit: 39 shapes a unit chart can pack its dots into, as silhouettes (heart, house, globe, tree), stroked glyphs (checkmark, arrow, heartbeat trace) and a composer that draws a number in its own dots. Every shape is a plain function of the marks and the plot rectangle, so it repacks at any dot count and any size, and importing one costs about 4 KB gzipped with the rest shaken out.
+
+```js
+import ApexCharts from 'apexcharts'
+import { heart } from 'apexcharts/unit-shapes'
+
+new ApexCharts(el, {
+  chart: { type: 'unit' },
+  series: [576, 168, 42, 34],
+  labels: ['Owned', 'Mortgaged', 'Renting', 'Other'],
+  plotOptions: { unit: { layout: 'custom', positions: heart } },
+}).render()
+```
+
+Shapes are composable (`outlined(heart)` traces it instead of filling it, `heart.with({ order: 'cols' })` changes where each series band lands), and `preview(heart, { series })` renders one to an SVG string with no chart and no DOM, for docs and build-time images. From a script tag, `dist/unit-shapes.js` exposes the same kit as `ApexUnitShapes` and registers every shape by name.
