• Timeline chart : Where to start?

  - elijah meeks has some force collision label work that he's done, though I don't know where it lives. I'd google around, it may have lived on bl.ocks.org; there may be more up-to-date stuff too. Source: about 1 year ago

• [OC] Russian population decline hit -1,042,675 last year. This population pyramid shows the development since 1946. With wars, famine, and the fall of Soviet marked.

  D3 is luckily a very popular library with lots of resources available. I'd suggest also checking out bl.ocks and Observable for great examples. The latter one is amazing if you just want to do statistics/visualization work, since it acts like a Jupyter-like notebook environment. Source: about 2 years ago

• Using Hamburger Menus? Try Sausage Links

  Yeah, for that use case, https://bl.ocks.org is better than CodePen. Publish a GitHub gist, replace gist.github.com with bl.ocks.org, and sneak in "/raw" between the username and the gist id. You can even point to specific commit hashes. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• How do I embed this d3 visualization into my own html page?

  The harder way: Follow an example of someone coding the visualization on their local set up (which may be hard to find depending on what your are looking for as a lot of D3 examples have migrated to Observable). But here is an old glossary of examples it is on an old website called Bl.ocks that showed D3 examples using Github gists. Source: over 2 years ago

• Optimize rendering a map w/ large data set

  That's great, and hey maybe I'll steal some of your recipes from your blog too :) Currently I'm following https://bl.ocks.org/ for inspiration and don't have too many other sources to read through, but your blog seems like it's filled w/ topics on data viz & getting around pain points, I'm all about it!

• Replatforming from Gatsby to Zola!

  Since around 2019 I have used Gatsby as my static site generator. Its plugin system makes it super feature extensible. It uses React under the hood which makes components easy to write and has tons of community support. Once I had a Gatsby site styled and running, publishing blog posts is fairly trivial:. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

• Build a Documentation Website with Gatsby in 10 Mins

  Smooth DOC is a ready-to-use Gatsby theme to create a documentation website. Creating a pro-quality website like this one takes weeks. Smooth DOC saves you time and lets you focus on the content. - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago

• Where to begin?

  I'd start with learning HTML and CSS first, then Javascript after those. There are a lot of free online resources for learning those. For websites, I use jekyll which is a great way to start off because there are a lot of community website templates that you can customize, which is great for beginners and learning. Then I'd recommend learning/moving to React. The Gatsby website generator would be good for React... Source: almost 2 years ago

• [AskJS] Need help in choosing the best tech stack to choose for the features listed in a SaaS SSG site (excluding wordpress)

  I'm not sure I understand you correctly, are you looking for a static site generator tool? In which case, none (or very few) of those are SaaS (software-as-a-service), but some of my favorites are Astro, NextJS, and Gatsby. Source: about 2 years ago

• Is Astro ready for your blog?

  Remember that Astro is still in beta, although the Astro team announced earlier this month that they plan for version 1.0 to go to general availability in June. For each item, I’ll assess Astro’s associated compliance or performance vs. That of a few other platforms I’ve used: in alphabetical order, Eleventy, Gatsby, Hugo, and Next.js. - Source: dev.to / about 2 years ago
