What is D3js?
D3 is a powerful JavaScript library that enables document manipulations through data-driven visualization and animations. It allows for the binding of arbitrary data to a Document Object Model (DOM), empowering users to apply transformations to the document based on that data. With D3, users can generate dynamic and interactive visualizations, such as HTML tables from arrays of numbers or SVG bar charts with smooth transitions and interaction
