[bug\_fix] Async/await is not supported in Client Components in Next.js App Router

Remove async from Client Components. Fetch data in a parent Server Component and pass it as props, or fetch inside a useEffect in the Client Component and store the result in state. Do not make Client Components async.

Journey Context:
You copy a Server Component pattern into a Client Component, marking the file with 'use client' but leaving export default async function Chart\(\) with an awaited fetch inside. The build fails with an error that async components are only supported in Server Components. You first think you need a Babel plugin or a newer Next.js version, but the limitation is architectural: Client Components run in the browser after hydration, so React cannot suspend them the same way it suspends Server Components during SSR. The fix is to split the work: keep the data fetch in a Server Component \(which can be async\) and pass the fetched data down to the Client Component as props, or move the fetch into useEffect and store the result with useState if the fetch truly depends on browser-only state. This preserves the streaming model and keeps async boundaries where React expects them.
