ABOUT THIS COURSE
In this course, you will learn the fundamentals of D3.js (stands for Data-Driven Documents), which is a JavaScript library mainly used for visualization.
In the first half of the course, you will cover DOM (Document Object Model) manipulation, method chaining, data binding, and data loading.
In the second half, you’ll cover visualization concepts and dive deep into SVG which is used to draw different geometrical shapes. After that, you’ll work with various maps and graphs in order to display your data. Lastly, you’ll learn about network visualization with the help of nodes and links.
By the end of this course, you will have a new, powerful data visualization library at your disposal.
