This is a book about programming data visualizations for nonprogrammers. If you're an artist or graphic designer with visual skills but no prior experience working with data or code, this book is for you. If you're 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 is a practical introduction to merging three practices—datavisualization, interactive design, and web development—using D3, apowerful tool for custom, web-based visualization.

Whoever you are, I hope that you:

• Have heard of this new thing called the “World Wide Web”
• Are a bit familiar with HTML, the DOM, and CSS
• Might even have a little programming experience already
• Have heard of jQuery or written some JavaScript before
• Aren’t scared by unknown initialisms like CSV, SVG, or JSON
• Want to make useful, interactive visualizations

If any of those things are unknown or unclear, don’t fear. You might just wantto spend more time withChapter 3, whichcovers what
you really need to know before diving into D3.

D3’s official home on the Web is
