Observable Plot

Observable Notebooks allow code to be interspersed with documentation, data tables, and visualization in an online interface. I’ve been learning a little bit about making charts with Plot, Observable’s JavaScript graphing toolkit. The Plot Gallery is worth a look for anyone interested in data and design.

(Plot is derived from d3, a more general-purpose JavaScript visualization toolkit. See also Jupyter Notebooks for a similar computational notebook interface to other languages, like Python or R.)
