Description

This book is a practical hands-on introduction to D3 (Data-driven Documents): the most popular open-source JavaScript library for creating interactive web-based data visualizations. Based entirely on open web standards, D3 provides an integrated collection of tools for efficiently binding data to graphical elements. If you have basic knowledge of HTML, CSS and JavaScript you can use D3.js to create beautiful interactive web-based data visualizations. D3 is not a charting library. It doesn’t contain any pre-defined chart types, but can be used to create whatever visual representations of data you can imagine. The goal of this book is to introduce D3 and provide a learning path so that you obtain a solid understanding of its fundamental concepts, learn to use most of its modules and functions, and gain enough experience to create your own D3 visualizations. You will learn how to create bar, line, pie and scatter charts, trees, dendograms, treemaps, circle packs, chord/ribbon diagrams, sankey diagrams, animated network diagrams, and maps using different geographical projections. Fundamental concepts are explained in each chapter and then applied to a larger example in step-by-step tutorials, complete with full code, from hundreds of examples you can download and run. This book covers D3 version 5 and is based on ES2015 JavaScript.

Who is this book for?

The book is intended for web developers, web designers, data scientists, artists, and any developer who wish to create interactive data visualization for the Web using D3. The book assumes basic knowledge of HTML, CSs, and JavaScript.

What you will learn

  • Learn to use D3.js version 5 and web standards to create beautiful interactive data-driven visualizations for the web
  • Bind data to DOM elements, applying different scales, color schemes and configuring smooth animated transitions for data updates
  • Generate data structures and layouts for many popular chart formats
  • Apply interactive behaviors to any chart
  • Create thematic maps based on GIS data using different geographical projections with interactive behaviors
  • Load, parse and transform data from JSON and CSV formats

I read the book from Packt Publishing website to get started with D3.js. I first tried to follow couple of other resources but they weren't as good as this one. Would definetely recommend it. It comes with lots of hands on examples with it.

I use d3 extensively at my job and this book helped me understand and use the library with ease. I read it from front to middle and after that just read the relevant sections for each task as they were needed. Very helpful. Clearly written and very thorough.

I spent ton of money buying so many d3.js books --I own almost more than 1/2 the books on d3 in Amazon! Many scratch the surface and leave a lot to be desired. Some are utterly ridiculous & horrible --D3.js in Action comes to mind!Mike Bostock's articles are great in my experience. Only thing is, it is not as "quick": you have to read a lot, which is okay once you are deep in your project and need to learn a specific aspect of d3. How all the pieces fit together, and how to put a quick proof of concept together? Get this book. It teaches you a quite a bit. In fact, most readers may not need to reference Bostock's prolific code examples unless you need to do something which requires you to "go to the core".Page after page, the author's explanation never degrades in quality, and is a pleasure to read. He knows the subject pretty well, and knows what you would want to know, and he knows the best possible way to express it.
