Week 14: IMDB Top 250 Movies – Interactive Visualization Dashboard
This interactive dashboard visualizes IMDB's top 250 movies across five linked charts, including scatter plots, stacked bars, a genre bar chart, and a hierarchy tree. Users filter by decade and toggle regression or trend lines while hovering over genres in the legend to highlight specific categories. Built with React and D3 v7, the visualization uses `scaleLinear`, `scaleOrdinal`, `hierarchy`, `tree`, and `linkHorizontal` APIs. The dataset comes from a Kaggle compilation of IMDB ratings, budgets, runtimes, and genres. Interactive controls include dropdowns, buttons, and zoomable tree navigation with tooltips.
