This example demonstrates loading and displaying US employment and unemployment data from a CSV file. It first shows a raw JSON representation of the data, initially indicating a "LOADING" state before fetching the dataset from a GitHub Gist. Once retrieved, it parses the CSV string using D3's `csvParse` method, converting numerical fields from strings to numbers and handling footnotes. The visualization uses the D3 v7 library to manage the asynchronous data-fetching workflow, updating the displayed content via a state management system. The data originates from the USA Bureau of Labor Statistics, covering civilian noninstitutional population employment status since 1940.

Loading US GDP Data

This example demonstrates the asynchronous loading and parsing of a CSV file containing US GDP data, displaying the resulting data structure as JSON in a `<pre>` element. Initially showing "LOADING" and then the parsed array of objects, it fetches the dataset from a Gist URL, uses `d3.csvParse` to parse the CSV, and converts numeric fields like `date`, `level_current`, and `change_chained` to numbers. The visualization relies on the `d3` library for DOM selection and CSV parsing, with the data structured according to the BEA-sourced fields from datahub.io.

Loading and Parsing UN Labor Participation and Unemployment

This example demonstrates a minimal display of dataset characteristics, presenting the total file size in kilobytes, row count, and column count of a UN Labour Force and Unemployment CSV file in a large-text HTML element. It loads the remote CSV using D3 v7’s `d3.csv` method, then formats the data back to a string with `d3.csvFormat` to compute its byte length. The visualization confirms successful parsing by reporting these three key metrics, offering a bare-bones proof of data loading without rendering any charts or graphs.

Loading CSV Data with D3

This example loads unemployment data for Spanish regions from a CSV file and logs the parsed array of JSON objects to the browser console. The page also displays a static SVG illustration of a colorful Easter egg, drawn with primitive shapes like ellipses, circles, polygons, and text elements. The code uses D3 v3’s `d3.csv` method to asynchronously fetch and parse the external data file, demonstrating basic data loading without any visual encoding. The SVG markup is hand-coded in the HTML, while the CSV parsing occurs in a callback that prints the dataset for inspection.

CSV Dataset Template - Unemployment

This example displays the first row of a U.S. unemployment dataset as a JSON object in a preformatted text block. The dataset, sourced from the Federal Reserve’s FRED platform, includes monthly unemployment rates from 1948 onward, broken down by gender and age groups. The code imports the CSV data, converts all rate fields to numbers, and renders the first data point using `container.innerHTML`. It does not visualize the temporal trends or gender comparisons described in the metadata.

Unemployment in America Per US State

This example visualizes unemployment rates for US states, territories, and metropolitan areas from 1976 onward, with data parsed from a CSV file. It allows comparison of rates across states and analysis of trends over time, highlighting areas with high or low unemployment. The code imports the dataset, strips commas from numeric fields, and converts them to numbers. It then uses JavaScript to display the first data entry as formatted JSON in a pre element, with font size set programmatically. No external visualization libraries are used, relying instead on native DOM manipulation.

Labour Force and Unemployment

This example displays metadata about a labour force and unemployment dataset, including row and column counts and file size. It loads the data from a CSV file using D3’s `d3.csv` and presents the summary in a large-text `<pre>` element. The code also includes an alternative implementation using `fetch` and `d3.csvParse` to handle the same data. The page focuses on data inspection rather than graphical visualization, showing only textual summary information.

Scatter Plot of Loading US GDP Data with axes

This example uses a D3.js scatter plot to visualize annual US GDP data, plotting the year on the x-axis against GDP in current dollars on the y-axis. The visualization loads data from a GitHub-hosted CSV file sourced from the Bureau of Economic Analysis. The code leverages D3’s `scaleLinear`, `extent`, and `axisLeft`/`axisBottom` APIs to build scales and axes, with data parsed via `csvParse` and rendered as circles. A title labels the chart, and axes are annotated with descriptive text.

Loading Data - Burnout

This visualization demonstrates the process of loading and parsing a CSV dataset about employee burnout. The code begins with a loading state, fetches the `data.csv` file, and parses it into a JSON structure using the `csvParse` function from D3 v7. Numeric fields are explicitly converted to numbers, while categorical fields like `Gender` and `Country` remain as strings. The parsed data is then stored in the application state and displayed as a pretty-printed JSON object, showcasing the data-cleaning and preparation steps before any visual encoding.
