Interactive Data Visualization For The Web

What Hacker News says

1. solaticMay 2024
   I found resources like Scott Murray's "Interactive Data Visualization for the Web" to be invaluable; the D3 docs are too dense/reference-focused for me, but his book introduced the concepts in a slower, more tutorial-like fashion.

   In addition to what et-al said, the d3 wiki [1] has a list of tutorials. If you're looking for a book, I found Scott Murray's "Interactive Data Visualization for the Web" [2] to be good.

   Scott Murray has published some great tutorials on D3.js (http://alignedleft.com/tutorials/d3/), and has an O'Reilly book on "Interactive Data Visualization for the Web" that's about it as well: http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920026938.do

   I was wondering the same thing myself. I know it's unscientific / biased, but I usually take a quick peak at the Amazon reviews. Here's the summary, in case it helps anyone else:

   - Programming Voice Interfaces = no reviews

   - Mobile App Development with Ionic = 3.5 stars (3 reviews)

   - JSON at Work = no reviews

   - Refactoring JavaScript = 5 stars (2 reviews)

   - CSS Refactoring = 4 stars (4 reviews)

   - Interactive Data Visualization for the Web = 5 stars (16 reviews)

   - Learning React Native = 5 stars (2 reviews)

   - Learning HTTP/2 = 4.5 stars (7 reviews)

   - SVG Animations = 4.5 stars (8 reviews)

   - Working with Static Sites = no reviews

   - React Native Cookbook = no reviews

   - CSS: The Definitive Guide = 5 stars (13 reviews)

   - Using SVG with CSS3 and HTML5 = 5 stars (1 review)

   - Learning React = 4 stars (22 reviews)

   - High Performance Images = 5 stars (1 review)

   The sample size of reviews for most of the books is a little limited, but I'm planning on picking up the bundle at the $15 level anyway -- CSS: The Definitive Guide is well-reviewed (and expensive by itself).
