Mike Bostock is announcing that D3.js with version number 3.5.6 is already available to download.
What is D3.js ?
D3.js is A JavaScript, HTML5 and SVG visualization library, a complex toolkit for manipulating a Web page based on inputted data and a configuration file .
D3.js can be used to create visualizations of complex data, information which can’t be processed by regular charting toolkits and displayed in the classic bar-line-pie formats.The library will manipulate HTML and SVG code based on an input configuration and the data itself, while also letting developers use CSS3 and HTML5 to style its output.D3 is extremely fast, supporting large datasets, dynamic hover effects and animations.There’s a large API to help developers adapt it to their own data structures and output the custom visualizations and chart they really need.Lots of examples are included with the download package.The D3.js library is slowly replacing most of today’s modern charting tools, becoming an unofficial standard when it comes to building modern, beautiful Web-based data visualization applications.
This is changelog for D3.js version 3.5.6 :
- Zero dependencies! JSDOM is now limited to a development dependency for testing.
- Remove runtime dependency on global window and document.
- Fix d3.transition() crash in IE.
- Fix selection.append for shadow DOMs that lack a namespaceURI.
