MasteringD3-Resusable-ProD3js-3.1
This example demonstrates a reusable radial bar chart that visualizes browser market share usage data from a JSON dataset. The visualization applies a force simulation using `d3.forceSimulation` with charge and position forces to arrange data points, while `d3.arc` generates the radial segments. Built with D3 v5 and SVG, the chart uses `d3.scaleSqrt` for sizing circles based on usage values and `d3.scaleOrdinal` with `d3.schemeCategory10` for color encoding by browser name. The implementation follows the Pro D3.js pattern for modular, testable charts, with animated transitions on segment updates.

It is derived from Mike Bostock's Towards Reusable Charts (https://bost.ocks.org/mike/chart/) as the source of the foundational principles.
Using the ProD3 pattern (Pro D3.js Use D3.js to Create Maintainable, Modular, and Testable Charts by Marcos Iglesias https://www.apress.com/gp/book/9781484252024) as the basis for charts pattern.
