Javascript First Steps
This example demonstrates the foundational steps of building a visualization with D3 and React. It creates a minimal web page with a bare HTML structure and an empty SVG element appended to the body using D3’s `select` and `append` methods. The JavaScript code contains commented-out exercises on array methods like `push`, `forEach`, `filter`, `map`, `reduce`, and `sort`, illustrating how data transformations work in D3. The visualization itself is purely an empty SVG canvas, with no data or shapes rendered, serving as a starting point for learning JavaScript and D3 syntax.
