D3 Visualization Framework
2015-04-21 - By Robert Elder
d3.js is another javascript framework I've heard a lot about, so I've resolved to get a demo up and running by 6pm today. This particular framework supports a number of different types of visualizations. D3 seems to focus on building custom geometric and geographical visualizations. Additionally, it also supports a number of standard chart types like histograms and pie charts.
The above demo is adapted from the example located here. One of the first things I noticed about this framework is that it seems geared more toward lower level drawing operations. A few other libraries that I've used seem to be just about throwing data into them and seeing a result. This would give you much more flexibility to create unique visualizations, but would obviously require a bit more thought if you wanted to master this framework.
