The Stacked Twin Axis widget is a type of data visualization that combines two different types of charts in one plot to show multiple variables at once. The plot has two Y-Axis that shares the same X-Axis and displays different types of data.

In the given example, the X-Axis displays positive and negative mentions on either side of the axis respectively, while the Y-Axis displays the Created Time. The user can observe both the sentiment distribution, the trend, and total mentions on the same plot.
