D3 (Data-Driven Documents) is a JavaScript library for producing dynamic, interactive data visualizations in web browsers. It uses HTML, CSS, and SVG to create visualizations that can be viewed on any modern browser. D3 provides powerful visualization components and a data-driven approach to DOM manipulation, giving you the full capabilities of modern browsers and the freedom to design the right visual interface for your data.

(Easier) Interactive Data Visualization in React
Top Content
If you’re building a dashboard, analytics platform, or any web app where you need to give your users insight into their data, you need beautiful, custom, interactive data visualizations in your React app. But building visualizations hand with a low-level library like D3 can be a huge headache, involving lots of wheel-reinventing. In this talk, we’ll see how data viz development can get so much easier thanks to tools like Plot, a high-level dataviz library for quick & easy charting, and Observable, a reactive dataviz prototyping environment, both from the creator of D3. Through live coding examples we’ll explore how React refs let us delegate DOM manipulation for our data visualizations, and how Observable’s embedding functionality lets us easily repurpose community-built visualizations for our own data & use cases. By the end of this talk we’ll know how to get a beautiful, customized, interactive data visualization into our apps with a fraction of the time & effort!

Battle-Tested Techniques for Animation and Data Viz with React
In this talk we will discuss how to combine the power of D3 as a math library with React's rendering capabilities. How can we encapsulate animation for reuse with React functional components? How can we deal with restrictions in data structures to create interesting visualizations? How to approach performance issues when there are multiple animated elements on the screen? These are some of the questions that will be addressed as we dig deeper into techniques applied to real-world examples.
