I wanted to try out using D3 in an R Markdown document, to see how it works. Using r2d3, it works really well!
Me and Mandy Norrbo were messing around trying to make some purely fun stuff in D3, which you don’t really see too much. And this is what I made. I would usually go for p5.js to make stuff like this, but it was a nice challenge to do it in D3 instead.
