What is D3js

D3.js (Data Driven Documents) is not a programming language. It is a JavaScript based library used for creating dynamic data displays. D3 helps you bring data to life using HTML, SVG and CSS. D3’s emphasis on web standards gives you the full capabilities of modern browsers without tying yourself to a proprietary framework, combining powerful visualization components and a data-driven approach to Document Object Model (DOM) manipulation.
