## What it is
Sample code files accompanying the O'Reilly book 'Interactive Data Visualization for the Web, Second Edition' by Scott Murray. The repository contains HTML/JavaScript examples demonstrating D3.js visualization techniques chapter by chapter.

## Use cases
- learn d3.js from scratch
- follow along with a data visualization book
- find example code for d3 charts
- teach myself interactive data visualization
- get starter examples for svg charts in javascript
- reference d3 code snippets while reading the book

## When to choose
- you are reading or teaching from the second edition of the book and want matching code
- you want simple, beginner-friendly D3 examples
- you prefer learning data visualization through worked examples

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready charting library or framework
- you want examples for the latest D3 versions beyond the book's coverage
- you need actively maintained or documented software rather than book samples

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: data-visualization, charts, developer-tools
- domain: data-visualization, tutorials, education, web-development
- platform: browser, cross-platform
- tags: d3, code-examples, book-companion, javascript, html, svg, tutorial-code, web-server
