Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this javascript class:

D3.js is a powerful Javascript library used to create both static and interactive data visualizations. Developed and made popular by Mike Bostock, a computer scientist and former graphics editor for The New York Times, D3.js is widely considered the premier Javascript library for visualizing information on the web.

In this class, you’ll learn the fundamentals of D3.js, including some helpful hints for working with large datasets that are often underlying D3 visualizations. Using that knowledge, together we’ll build several static and interactive charts and graphics.

Takeaways:
  • Learn how to use the latest version of D3.js to create static and interactive data visualizations.
  • Understand the basics of D3.js selections.
  • Use D3.js to load and manipulate data and data files.
  • Understand the fundamental Enter-Update-Exit pattern D3.js uses to generate data visualizations.
  • Work with scales and axes to add legends and make charts and graphics more meaningful.
Prereqs & Preparation:
  • Students should have a basic understanding of web fundamentals (HTML & CSS) and JavaScript knowledge (basic data types, variables, how to use dot notation to chain methods and using callback functions). Additionally, an understanding of flat and relational data structures is helpful.
  • Students should bring a laptop with Google Chrome and Atom (https://ide.atom.io/) or Visual Studio Code (https://code.visualstudio.com/download) installed.
School Notes:
For students enrolling in 12 week part time and immersive classes, it is not recommended that you book more than one class simultaneously.

    I liked the presentation of the material and would have liked more emphasis on the tricky stuff and less time spent on the initial basic stuff. Other that that the pace was perfect!
