+description: Creating interactive data visualisations using d3.js. This skill should be used when creating custom charts, graphs, network diagrams, geographic visualisations, or any complex SVG-based data visualisation that requires fine-grained control over visual elements, transitions, or interactions. Use this for bespoke visualisations beyond standard charting libraries, whether in React, Vue, Svelte, vanilla JavaScript, or any other environment.
+---
+
+# D3.js Visualisation
+
+## Overview
+
+This skill provides guidance for creating sophisticated, interactive data visualisations using d3.js. D3.js (Data-Driven Documents) excels at binding data to DOM elements and applying data-driven transformations to create custom, publication-quality visualisations with precise control over every visual element. The techniques work across any JavaScript environment, including vanilla JavaScript, React, Vue, Svelte, and other frameworks.
+
+## When to use d3.js
+
+**Use d3.js for:**
+- Custom visualisations requiring unique visual encodings or layouts
+- Interactive explorations with complex pan, zoom, or brush behaviours
+- Network/graph visualisations (force-directed layouts, tree diagrams, hierarchies, chord diagrams)
+- Geographic visualisations with custom projections
+- Visualisations requiring smooth, choreographed transitions
+- Publication-quality graphics with fine-grained styling control
+- Novel chart types not available in standard libraries
+
+**Consider alternatives for:**
+- 3D visualisations - use Three.js instead
+
+## Core workflow
+
+### 1. Set up d3.js
+
+Import d3 at the top of your script:
+
+```javascript
+import * as d3 from 'd3';
+```
+
+Or use the CDN version (7.x):
+
+```html
+<script src="https://d3js.org/d3.v7.min.js"></script>
+```
+
+All modules (scales, axes, shapes, transitions, etc.) are accessible through the `d3` namespace.
+
+### 2. Choose the integration pattern
+
+**Pattern A: Direct DOM manipulation (recommended for most cases)**
+Use d3 to select DOM elements and manipulate them imperatively. This works in any JavaScript environment:
+
+```javascript
+function drawChart(data) {
+  if (!data || data.length === 0) return;
+
+  const svg = d3.select('#chart'); // Select by ID, class, or DOM element
+
+  // Clear previous content
+  svg.selectAll("*").remove();
+
+  // Set up dimensions
+  const width = 800;
+  const height = 400;
+  const margin = { top: 20, right: 30, bottom: 40, left: 50 };
+
+  // Create scales, axes, and draw visualisation
+  // ... d3 code here ...
+}
+
+// Call when data changes
+drawChart(myData);
+```
+
+**Pattern B: Declarative rendering (for frameworks with templating)**
+Use d3 for data calculations (scales, layouts) but render elements via your framework:
+
+```javascript
+function getChartElements(data) {
+  const xScale = d3.scaleLinear()
+    .domain([0, d3.max(data, d => d.value)])
+    .range([0, 400]);
+
+  return data.map((d, i) => ({
+    x: 50,
+    y: i * 30,
+    width: xScale(d.value),
+    height: 25
+  }));
+}
+
+// In React: {getChartElements(data).map((d, i) => <rect key={i} {...d} fill="steelblue" />)}
+// In Vue: v-for directive over the returned array
+// In vanilla JS: Create elements manually from the returned data
+```
+
+Use Pattern A for complex visualisations with transitions, interactions, or when leveraging d3's full capabilities. Use Pattern B for simpler visualisations or when your framework prefers declarative rendering.
+
+### 3. Structure the visualisation code
+
+Follow this standard structure in your drawing function:
+
+```javascript
+function drawVisualization(data) {
+  if (!data || data.length === 0) return;
+
+  const svg = d3.select('#chart'); // Or pass a selector/element
+  svg.selectAll("*").remove(); // Clear previous render
+
+  // 1. Define dimensions
+  const width = 800;
+  const height = 400;
+  const margin = { top: 20, right: 30, bottom: 40, left: 50 };
+  const innerWidth = width - margin.left - margin.right;
+  const innerHeight = height - margin.top - margin.bottom;
+
+  // 2. Create main group with margins
+  const g = svg.append("g")
+    .attr("transform", `translate(${margin.left},${margin.top})`);
+
+  // 3. Create scales
+  const xScale = d3.scaleLinear()
+    .domain([0, d3.max(data, d => d.x)])
+    .range([0, innerWidth]);
+
+  const yScale = d3.scaleLinear()
+    .domain([0, d3.max(data, d => d.y)])
+    .range([innerHeight, 0]); // Note: inverted for SVG coordinates
+
+  // 4. Create and append axes
+  const xAxis = d3.axisBottom(xScale);
+  const yAxis = d3.axisLeft(yScale);
+
+  g.append("g")
+    .attr("transform", `translate(0,${innerHeight})`)
+    .call(xAxis);
+
+  g.append("g")
+    .call(yAxis);
+
+  // 5. Bind data and create visual elements
+  g.selectAll("circle")
+    .data(data)
+    .join("circle")
+    .attr("cx", d => xScale(d.x))
+    .attr("cy", d => yScale(d.y))
+    .attr("r", 5)
+    .attr("fill", "steelblue");
+}
+
+// Call when data changes
+drawVisualization(myData);
+```
+
+### 4. Implement responsive sizing
+
+Make visualisations responsive to container size:
+
+```javascript
+function setupResponsiveChart(containerId, data) {
+  const container = document.getElementById(containerId);
+  const svg = d3.select(`#${containerId}`).append('svg');
+
+  function updateChart() {
+    const { width, height } = container.getBoundingClientRect();
+    svg.attr('width', width).attr('height', height);
+
+    // Redraw visualisation with new dimensions
+    drawChart(data, svg, width, height);
+  }
+
+  // Update on initial load
+  updateChart();
+
+  // Update on window resize
+  window.addEventListener('resize', updateChart);
+
+  // Return cleanup function
+  return () => window.removeEventListener('resize', updateChart);
+}
+
+// Usage:
+// const cleanup = setupResponsiveChart('chart-container', myData);
+// cleanup(); // Call when component unmounts or element removed
+```
+
+Or use ResizeObserver for more direct container monitoring:
+
+```javascript
+function setupResponsiveChartWithObserver(svgElement, data) {
+  const observer = new ResizeObserver(() => {
+    const { width, height } = svgElement.getBoundingClientRect();
+    d3.select(svgElement)
+      .attr('width', width)
+      .attr('height', height);
+
+    // Redraw visualisation
+    drawChart(data, d3.select(svgElement), width, height);
+  });
+
+  observer.observe(svgElement.parentElement);
+  return () => observer.disconnect();
+}
+```
+
+## Common visualisation patterns
+
+### Bar chart
+
+```javascript
+function drawBarChart(data, svgElement) {
+  if (!data || data.length === 0) return;
+
+  const svg = d3.select(svgElement);
+  svg.selectAll("*").remove();
+
+  const width = 800;
+  const height = 400;
+  const margin = { top: 20, right: 30, bottom: 40, left: 50 };
+  const innerWidth = width - margin.left - margin.right;
+  const innerHeight = height - margin.top - margin.bottom;
+
+  const g = svg.append("g")
+    .attr("transform", `translate(${margin.left},${margin.top})`);
+
+  const xScale = d3.scaleBand()
+    .domain(data.map(d => d.category))
+    .range([0, innerWidth])
+    .padding(0.1);
+
+  const yScale = d3.scaleLinear()
+    .domain([0, d3.max(data, d => d.value)])
+    .range([innerHeight, 0]);
+
+  g.append("g")
+    .attr("transform", `translate(0,${innerHeight})`)
+    .call(d3.axisBottom(xScale));
+
+  g.append("g")
+    .call(d3.axisLeft(yScale));
+
+  g.selectAll("rect")
+    .data(data)
+    .join("rect")
+    .attr("x", d => xScale(d.category))
+    .attr("y", d => yScale(d.value))
+    .attr("width", xScale.bandwidth())
+    .attr("height", d => innerHeight - yScale(d.value))
+    .attr("fill", "steelblue");
+}
+
+// Usage:
+// drawBarChart(myData, document.getElementById('chart'));
+```
+
+### Line chart
+
+```javascript
+const line = d3.line()
+  .x(d => xScale(d.date))
+  .y(d => yScale(d.value))
+  .curve(d3.curveMonotoneX); // Smooth curve
+
+g.append("path")
+  .datum(data)
+  .attr("fill", "none")
+  .attr("stroke", "steelblue")
+  .attr("stroke-width", 2)
+  .attr("d", line);
+```
+
+### Scatter plot
+
+```javascript
+g.selectAll("circle")
+  .data(data)
+  .join("circle")
+  .attr("cx", d => xScale(d.x))
+  .attr("cy", d => yScale(d.y))
+  .attr("r", d => sizeScale(d.size)) // Optional: size encoding
+  .attr("fill", d => colourScale(d.category)) // Optional: colour encoding
+  .attr("opacity", 0.7);
+```
+
+### Chord diagram
+
+A chord diagram shows relationships between entities in a circular layout, with ribbons representing flows between them:
+
+```javascript
+function drawChordDiagram(data) {
+  // data format: array of objects with source, target, and value
+  // Example: [{ source: 'A', target: 'B', value: 10 }, ...]
+
+  if (!data || data.length === 0) return;
+
+  const svg = d3.select('#chart');
+  svg.selectAll("*").remove();
+
+  const width = 600;
+  const height = 600;
+  const innerRadius = Math.min(width, height) * 0.3;
+  const outerRadius = innerRadius + 30;
+
+  // Create matrix from data
+  const nodes = Array.from(new Set(data.flatMap(d => [d.source, d.target])));
+  const matrix = Array.from({ length: nodes.length }, () => Array(nodes.length).fill(0));
+
+  data.forEach(d => {
+    const i = nodes.indexOf(d.source);
+    const j = nodes.indexOf(d.target);
+    matrix[i][j] += d.value;
+    matrix[j][i] += d.value;
+  });
+
+  // Create chord layout
+  const chord = d3.chord()
+    .padAngle(0.05)
+    .sortSubgroups(d3.descending);
+
+  const arc = d3.arc()
+    .innerRadius(innerRadius)
+    .outerRadius(outerRadius);
+
+  const ribbon = d3.ribbon()
+    .source(d => d.source)
+    .target(d => d.target);
+
+  const colourScale = d3.scaleOrdinal(d3.schemeCategory10)
+    .domain(nodes);
+
+  const g = svg.append("g")
+    .attr("transform", `translate(${width / 2},${height / 2})`);
+
+  const chords = chord(matrix);
+
+  // Draw ribbons
+  g.append("g")
+    .attr("fill-opacity", 0.67)
+    .selectAll("path")
+    .data(chords)
+    .join("path")
+    .attr("d", ribbon)
+    .attr("fill", d => colourScale(nodes[d.source.index]))
+    .attr("stroke", d => d3.rgb(colourScale(nodes[d.source.index])).darker());
+
+  // Draw groups (arcs)
+  const group = g.append("g")
+    .selectAll("g")
+    .data(chords.groups)
+    .join("g");
+
+  group.append("path")
+    .attr("d", arc)
+    .attr("fill", d => colourScale(nodes[d.index]))
+    .attr("stroke", d => d3.rgb(colourScale(nodes[d.index])).darker());
+
+  // Add labels
+  group.append("text")
+    .each(d => { d.angle = (d.startAngle + d.endAngle) / 2; })
+    .attr("dy", "0.31em")
+    .attr("transform", d => `rotate(${(d.angle * 180 / Math.PI) - 90})translate(${outerRadius + 30})${d.angle > Math.PI ? "rotate(180)" : ""}`)
+    .attr("text-anchor", d => d.angle > Math.PI ? "end" : null)
+    .text((d, i) => nodes[i])
+    .style("font-size", "12px");
+}
+```
+
+### Heatmap
+
+A heatmap uses colour to encode values in a two-dimensional grid, useful for showing patterns across categories:
+
+```javascript
+function drawHeatmap(data) {
+  // data format: array of objects with row, column, and value
+  // Example: [{ row: 'A', column: 'X', value: 10 }, ...]
+
+  if (!data || data.length === 0) return;
+
+  const svg = d3.select('#chart');
+  svg.selectAll("*").remove();
+
+  const width = 800;
+  const height = 600;
+  const margin = { top: 100, right: 30, bottom: 30, left: 100 };
+  const innerWidth = width - margin.left - margin.right;
+  const innerHeight = height - margin.top - margin.bottom;
+
+  // Get unique rows and columns
+  const rows = Array.from(new Set(data.map(d => d.row)));
+  const columns = Array.from(new Set(data.map(d => d.column)));
+
+  const g = svg.append("g")
+    .attr("transform", `translate(${margin.left},${margin.top})`);
+
+  // Create scales
+  const xScale = d3.scaleBand()
+    .domain(columns)
+    .range([0, innerWidth])
+    .padding(0.01);
+
+  const yScale = d3.scaleBand()
+    .domain(rows)
+    .range([0, innerHeight])
+    .padding(0.01);
+
+  // Colour scale for values
+  const colourScale = d3.scaleSequential(d3.interpolateYlOrRd)
+    .domain([0, d3.max(data, d => d.value)]);
+
+  // Draw rectangles
+  g.selectAll("rect")
+    .data(data)
+    .join("rect")
+    .attr("x", d => xScale(d.column))
+    .attr("y", d => yScale(d.row))
+    .attr("width", xScale.bandwidth())
+    .attr("height", yScale.bandwidth())
+    .attr("fill", d => colourScale(d.value));
+
+  // Add x-axis labels
+  svg.append("g")
+    .attr("transform", `translate(${margin.left},${margin.top})`)
+    .selectAll("text")
+    .data(columns)
+    .join("text")
+    .attr("x", d => xScale(d) + xScale.bandwidth() / 2)
+    .attr("y", -10)
+    .attr("text-anchor", "middle")
+    .text(d => d)
+    .style("font-size", "12px");
+
+  // Add y-axis labels
+  svg.append("g")
+    .attr("transform", `translate(${margin.left},${margin.top})`)
+    .selectAll("text")
+    .data(rows)
+    .join("text")
+    .attr("x", -10)
+    .attr("y", d => yScale(d) + yScale.bandwidth() / 2)
+    .attr("dy", "0.35em")
+    .attr("text-anchor", "end")
+    .text(d => d)
+    .style("font-size", "12px");
+
+  // Add colour legend
+  const legendWidth = 20;
+  const legendHeight = 200;
+  const legend = svg.append("g")
+    .attr("transform", `translate(${width - 60},${margin.top})`);
+
+  const legendScale = d3.scaleLinear()
+    .domain(colourScale.domain())
+    .range([legendHeight, 0]);
+
+  const legendAxis = d3.axisRight(legendScale)
+    .ticks(5);
+
+  // Draw colour gradient in legend
+  for (let i = 0; i < legendHeight; i++) {
+    legend.append("rect")
+      .attr("y", i)
+      .attr("width", legendWidth)
+      .attr("height", 1)
+      .attr("fill", colourScale(legendScale.invert(i)));
+  }
+
+  legend.append("g")
+    .attr("transform", `translate(${legendWidth},0)`)
+    .call(legendAxis);
+}
+```
+
+### Pie chart
+
+```javascript
+const pie = d3.pie()
+  .value(d => d.value)
+  .sort(null);
+
+const arc = d3.arc()
+  .innerRadius(0)
+  .outerRadius(Math.min(width, height) / 2 - 20);
+
+const colourScale = d3.scaleOrdinal(d3.schemeCategory10);
+
+const g = svg.append("g")
+  .attr("transform", `translate(${width / 2},${height / 2})`);
+
+g.selectAll("path")
+  .data(pie(data))
+  .join("path")
+  .attr("d", arc)
+  .attr("fill", (d, i) => colourScale(i))
+  .attr("stroke", "white")
+  .attr("stroke-width", 2);
+```
+
+### Force-directed network
+
+```javascript
+const simulation = d3.forceSimulation(nodes)
+  .force("link", d3.forceLink(links).id(d => d.id).distance(100))
+  .force("charge", d3.forceManyBody().strength(-300))
+  .force("center", d3.forceCenter(width / 2, height / 2));
+
+const link = g.selectAll("line")
+  .data(links)
+  .join("line")
+  .attr("stroke", "#999")
+  .attr("stroke-width", 1);
+
+const node = g.selectAll("circle")
+  .data(nodes)
+  .join("circle")
+  .attr("r", 8)
+  .attr("fill", "steelblue")
+  .call(d3.drag()
+    .on("start", dragstarted)
+    .on("drag", dragged)
+    .on("end", dragended));
+
+simulation.on("tick", () => {
+  link
+    .attr("x1", d => d.source.x)
+    .attr("y1", d => d.source.y)
+    .attr("x2", d => d.target.x)
+    .attr("y2", d => d.target.y);
+  
+  node
+    .attr("cx", d => d.x)
+    .attr("cy", d => d.y);
+});
+
+function dragstarted(event) {
+  if (!event.active) simulation.alphaTarget(0.3).restart();
+  event.subject.fx = event.subject.x;
+  event.subject.fy = event.subject.y;
+}
+
+function dragged(event) {
+  event.subject.fx = event.x;
+  event.subject.fy = event.y;
+}
+
+function dragended(event) {
+  if (!event.active) simulation.alphaTarget(0);
+  event.subject.fx = null;
+  event.subject.fy = null;
+}
+```
+
+## Adding interactivity
+
+### Tooltips
+
+```javascript
+// Create tooltip div (outside SVG)
+const tooltip = d3.select("body").append("div")
+  .attr("class", "tooltip")
+  .style("position", "absolute")
+  .style("visibility", "hidden")
+  .style("background-color", "white")
+  .style("border", "1px solid #ddd")
+  .style("padding", "10px")
+  .style("border-radius", "4px")
+  .style("pointer-events", "none");
+
+// Add to elements
+circles
+  .on("mouseover", function(event, d) {
+    d3.select(this).attr("opacity", 1);
+    tooltip
+      .style("visibility", "visible")
+      .html(`<strong>${d.label}</strong><br/>Value: ${d.value}`);
+  })
+  .on("mousemove", function(event) {
+    tooltip
+      .style("top", (event.pageY - 10) + "px")
+      .style("left", (event.pageX + 10) + "px");
+  })
+  .on("mouseout", function() {
+    d3.select(this).attr("opacity", 0.7);
+    tooltip.style("visibility", "hidden");
+  });
+```
+
+### Zoom and pan
+
+```javascript
+const zoom = d3.zoom()
+  .scaleExtent([0.5, 10])
+  .on("zoom", (event) => {
+    g.attr("transform", event.transform);
+  });
+
+svg.call(zoom);
+```
+
+### Click interactions
+
+```javascript
+circles
+  .on("click", function(event, d) {
+    // Handle click (dispatch event, update app state, etc.)
+    console.log("Clicked:", d);
+
+    // Visual feedback
+    d3.selectAll("circle").attr("fill", "steelblue");
+    d3.select(this).attr("fill", "orange");
+
+    // Optional: dispatch custom event for your framework/app to listen to
+    // window.dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent('chartClick', { detail: d }));
+  });
+```
+
+## Transitions and animations
+
+Add smooth transitions to visual changes:
+
+```javascript
+// Basic transition
+circles
+  .transition()
+  .duration(750)
+  .attr("r", 10);
+
+// Chained transitions
+circles
+  .transition()
+  .duration(500)
+  .attr("fill", "orange")
+  .transition()
+  .duration(500)
+  .attr("r", 15);
+
+// Staggered transitions
+circles
+  .transition()
+  .delay((d, i) => i * 50)
+  .duration(500)
+  .attr("cy", d => yScale(d.value));
+
+// Custom easing
+circles
+  .transition()
+  .duration(1000)
+  .ease(d3.easeBounceOut)
+  .attr("r", 10);
+```
+
+## Scales reference
+
+### Quantitative scales
+
+```javascript
+// Linear scale
+const xScale = d3.scaleLinear()
+  .domain([0, 100])
+  .range([0, 500]);
+
+// Log scale (for exponential data)
+const logScale = d3.scaleLog()
+  .domain([1, 1000])
+  .range([0, 500]);
+
+// Power scale
+const powScale = d3.scalePow()
+  .exponent(2)
+  .domain([0, 100])
+  .range([0, 500]);
+
+// Time scale
+const timeScale = d3.scaleTime()
+  .domain([new Date(2020, 0, 1), new Date(2024, 0, 1)])
+  .range([0, 500]);
+```
+
+### Ordinal scales
+
+```javascript
+// Band scale (for bar charts)
+const bandScale = d3.scaleBand()
+  .domain(['A', 'B', 'C', 'D'])
+  .range([0, 400])
+  .padding(0.1);
+
+// Point scale (for line/scatter categories)
+const pointScale = d3.scalePoint()
+  .domain(['A', 'B', 'C', 'D'])
+  .range([0, 400]);
+
+// Ordinal scale (for colours)
+const colourScale = d3.scaleOrdinal(d3.schemeCategory10);
+```
+
+### Sequential scales
+
+```javascript
+// Sequential colour scale
+const colourScale = d3.scaleSequential(d3.interpolateBlues)
+  .domain([0, 100]);
+
+// Diverging colour scale
+const divScale = d3.scaleDiverging(d3.interpolateRdBu)
+  .domain([-10, 0, 10]);
+```
+
+## Best practices
+
+### Data preparation
+
+Always validate and prepare data before visualisation:
+
+```javascript
+// Filter invalid values
+const cleanData = data.filter(d => d.value != null && !isNaN(d.value));
+
+// Sort data if order matters
+const sortedData = [...data].sort((a, b) => b.value - a.value);
+
+// Parse dates
+const parsedData = data.map(d => ({
+  ...d,
+  date: d3.timeParse("%Y-%m-%d")(d.date)
+}));
+```
+
+### Performance optimisation
+
+For large datasets (>1000 elements):
+
+```javascript
+// Use canvas instead of SVG for many elements
+// Use quadtree for collision detection
+// Simplify paths with d3.line().curve(d3.curveStep)
+// Implement virtual scrolling for large lists
+// Use requestAnimationFrame for custom animations
+```
+
+### Accessibility
+
+Make visualisations accessible:
+
+```javascript
+// Add ARIA labels
+svg.attr("role", "img")
+   .attr("aria-label", "Bar chart showing quarterly revenue");
+
+// Add title and description
+svg.append("title").text("Quarterly Revenue 2024");
+svg.append("desc").text("Bar chart showing revenue growth across four quarters");
+
+// Ensure sufficient colour contrast
+// Provide keyboard navigation for interactive elements
+// Include data table alternative
+```
+
+### Styling
+
+Use consistent, professional styling:
+
+```javascript
+// Define colour palettes upfront
+const colours = {
+  primary: '#4A90E2',
+  secondary: '#7B68EE',
+  background: '#F5F7FA',
+  text: '#333333',
+  gridLines: '#E0E0E0'
+};
+
+// Apply consistent typography
+svg.selectAll("text")
+  .style("font-family", "Inter, sans-serif")
+  .style("font-size", "12px");
+
+// Use subtle grid lines
+g.selectAll(".tick line")
+  .attr("stroke", colours.gridLines)
+  .attr("stroke-dasharray", "2,2");
+```
+
+## Common issues and solutions
+
+**Issue**: Axes not appearing
+- Ensure scales have valid domains (check for NaN values)
+- Verify axis is appended to correct group
+- Check transform translations are correct
+
+**Issue**: Transitions not working
+- Call `.transition()` before attribute changes
+- Ensure elements have unique keys for proper data binding
+- Check that useEffect dependencies include all changing data
+
+**Issue**: Responsive sizing not working
+- Use ResizeObserver or window resize listener
+- Update dimensions in state to trigger re-render
+- Ensure SVG has width/height attributes or viewBox
+
+**Issue**: Performance problems
+- Limit number of DOM elements (consider canvas for >1000 items)
+- Debounce resize handlers
+- Use `.join()` instead of separate enter/update/exit selections
+- Avoid unnecessary re-renders by checking dependencies
