dc.js is one of those libraries that completely blows client's minds. The hard thing to do as a developer is not to try and filter the data too much. dc.js lets the end-user filter the data interactively and create their own stories, you just have to work out the questions each chart lets the user ask. http://dc-js.github.io/dc.js/ http://dc-js.github.io/dc.js/
As it sits on top of crossfilter (http://square.github.io/crossfilter/ http://square.github.io/crossfilter/) you can also do unusual things behind the scenes to the data sets. As an example, I used google maps to restrict datasets to the current map view. Worked surprisingly well. http://www.bathhacked.org/projects/hacked21-food-standards/ http://www.bathhacked.org/projects/hacked21-food-standards/
- elsherbini 11y agoIt looks like the link to the project on that article is down (http://www.sure-sense.com/fhrs/ http://www.sure-sense.com/fhrs/). Is it hosted elsewhere? I'd love to take a look.
- awjr 11y agoYeah sadly, it was a hackathon hack I repurposed afterwards for a startup I was working for. Will try and dig it out.
