So glad!! 🔥☀️
Less than a week back at work,
and 72 people have already joined my data visualization course.

Thank you for the trust! 🙏
The dual Y axis chart lets you compare 2 series on the same plot.
It's one of the easiest ways to _lie_ with data.
So I made a little playground to highlight why it's problematic!

Love #data?
Love when it looks beautiful?
Marthe Viallet nailed it one more time! ❤️
Check the data art exhibition she organised for the ENSAI.
It's open for 2 more weeks in Rennes, France.
Follow her for more details on it.
Soon to be added in data-to-art.com
Reviewed 40+ #dataviz projects for the Pacific Dataviz Challenge. Top caveats:
💀 Claude default look
📚 40 charts, no story
➖ Useless buttons
🥸 Text nobody reads
😮 Wrong chart type
🐣 Long lines
📽️ Endless animations
📍 Legends, not labels
Details 👇

Want to have a good laugh?
Ask "roast me" to your AI and read it loud to your friends!!!
I hope it will be as tough for you than it's been for me :)
This graph has a lot of echo in France.
❌ It's not a simple line chart:
- a very strong title
- a hot topic
- a LOT of annotations
- a clean design
- very good hierarchy of information
It transforms data points in a real story!
Just added it to dataviz-inspiration.com
Only in module B of d3-loves-react.com and someone created a scatterplot where you must hunt pokemons 😮
#Dataviz as a game?!

Just found a very important graph on so many aspects!!!

That's it!
The Pacific Dataviz Challenge revealed the winners!!
They are stunning and it was a pleasure to be a judge.

Checking the winning entries is 100% a good use of your time!
Both for #dataviz and climate knowledge
Congrats
I'm working on a set of "Dataviz caveat flashcards"
I feel like the geospatial category is weak so far.
In your opinion, what are the most common caveats ppl do when they build maps???
🙏🙏🙏🙏
(Note: I have 50 cards so far, published soon :))
Interactive #dataviz really turns data into something you can "feel" and explore.
Check this example by Thomas Heggelund that shows where traffic accidents take place in the best visual way!

Of course, instant add to Dataviz-inspiration.com! 😋
Yay, just shipped a new version of the python-graph-gallery.com!!
Editable code
No ads
Everything faster
Search bar
Zillion bugs fixed!
Please let me know if you find anything wrong!?
🧂 Don’t spoil the #dataviz dish!
Code is basically free now. Tooltips, buttons, extra charts, gradients, confetti...
More, more, more.
The real challenge is the opposite:
→ one story
→ one chart type
→ zero clutter
Less, less, less!
I'm curious...
Do you recognise this?
Please tell me I’m not the only one who’s seen it a thousand times.
😛
Animation to show timeseries? 🤔
I've always had mixed feelings about that.
Race bar charts...
Animated line charts...
I feel like they are often wasting my time.
But this animated density map is just perfect! ❤️
Instant add to dataviz-inspiration.com!
So glad! 🎉☀️🍾
183 ppl enrolled in my #dataviz course already!
D3.js is really becoming the norm in this AI era.
If you too want to be able to build absolutely any kind of interactive chart, there are a few hours left to join!

Good #dataviz joke so basically impossible for me not to share!
If you don't want to create charts like this... check my d3-loves-react.com 😀
D3.js is becoming incredibly popular for #dataviz, thanks to AI.
If you're wondering what it is & why it's so great, I wrote an article on the topic!
react-graph-gallery.com/cour…
Stumbled on an awesome static graph.
But got frustrated because I couldn't find my country..
So I made an interactive version of it:
search bar + hover effect 😀
AI is going to have such a big impact on the way we consume charts

Just added a few graphs to my Dataviz-inspiration.com collection!
There are about 500 hundreds dataviz projects there, filterable by chart type!
