> Agreed. Unfortunately I think this is the inherent limitation to the explosion of such material (Bret's seminal essay [0] was almost a decade ago) - it takes an insane amount of skill, in mostly orthogonal disciplines, as well as a lot of time and effort to make it. This is what I figured out as well. Often the people that have the knowledge are not the ones who know how to put this on to a webpage in a another form then text and images. Like mygo comments below most explanations are done in interactive news articles but this has to be done with a team of programmers and designers who are working together. I am currently building a tool trying to narrow this gap. The tool is at a very early stage, but I'm sharing early previews at [1]. The goal is to create a tool for interactive visualizations that people without much programming experience can use which outputs something that is more dynamic then just text. Such a tool could never do what could be done with a full blown programming language but I'm hoping to start at an easy to use tool and expand it outwards to more complex visualizations.
