Preface

This is a book about programming data visualizations for nonprogrammers. If youre an artist or graphic designer with visual skills but no prior experience working with data or code, this book is for you. If youre a journalist or researcher with lots of data but no prior experience working with visuals or code, this book is for you, too.

This book will introduce you to D3, a JavaScript-based tool for loading data into a web page and generating visuals from that data. I assume that you have little or no programming experience. Or, perhaps you have programmed before, but D3 and data visualization are bringing you to JavaScript for the first time, and youve heard bad things about it. Well, JavaScript is a little weird, but its not as bad as youve heard, and everything is going to be all right. Please sit down and make yourself comfortable.

This book began as a series of tutorials posted on my website. At the time (January 2012), there wasnt much information on D3 available that was accessible to beginners. Very quickly, I was getting hundreds, then thousands of page views a dayevidence that interest in the field generally (and D3 specifically) was growing like gangbusters. If youve read the tutorials, portions of the book will feel familiar, but there is a lot of new material here, including many more examples, sneaky tips, and warnings of things to avoid. Also, the book contains 78 percent more bad jokes.

Data visualization is an interdisciplinary field, which is just one reason its impossible to document the breadth of skills needed in a single book. Fortunately, because the field is exploding in popularity, there are many new titles to choose from, each of which complements this one.
