D3 (which stands for Data Driven Documents) is a Javascript library that enables you to display data in a flexible way. Since it’s a Javascript library, these visualizations can easily be shared either offline or via the internet. The option to add interactive elements to your visualization lends itself to making your data easy for others to explore. During this workshop we’ll cover the basics of using d3.js to visualize data. No prior web programming experience required (we’ll teach you the necessary Javascript and html), but this workshop is aimed at people with some programming experience.
