  Doesn't that make it more fun/rewarding?

    nope - d3 code is extremely imperative... so after a couple of lines, they're somewhat unmaintainable to me... but couldn't find anything that covers most of d3's features...

      d3 is extremely functional. You can write it imperative, but it becomes unmaintainable pretty quickly.

    It's very deliberately a lower level framework, for maximum flexibility. If you just want a bar chart in a line or five of code, there are many libraries which build on top of it. Long live d3.js!
