Background

I'm a huge fan of D3.js, the Data Visualization JavaScript library created by Mike Bostock, Jeff Heer, and a community of open source contributors. Bostock maintains bl.ocks.org which serves as a defacto repository for the Dataviz community's examples and sketches. Using his Node.js program gistup or Block Builder by Ian Johnson you can upload a git project and host all the files you need for a modestly sized static webapp.

Selected Projects

Helpful Resources

Interactive Data Visualization for the Web

  • A book by Scott Murray. The best way to begin learning JS, HTML, CSS, D3, and simple web servers.

D3.js in Action: Data Visualization with JavaScript 2nd Edition

  • A book by Elijah Meeks, Senior Data Visualization Engineer at Netlix and author of the Semiotic library for Dataviz in D3+React. One of the best and most complete books for practicing Dataviz people. Nothing beats it as a followup to Scott's book.

Crossfilter

  • An optimized JS library for exploring and filtering large multivariate datasets in the browser. Very useful when making high-dimension visualizations.

bl.ocksplorer.org

  • A customized search engine for bl.ocks.org. Give it a D3 function and you will see a list of relevant projects. Created by Irene Ros and Bocoup.

Data Visualization & D3.js Weekly Newsletter

NYC D3.js group through Meetup.com

Data Stories podcast

  • One of the best Dataviz podcasts, covering a wide breadth of guests and topics. Many episodes are interviews, some explore a specific topic, and increasingly more are breakdowns of a project alongside its authors. Hosted by Enrico Bertini and Moritz Stefaner.
