A smiley face built with SVG is animated so its eyebrows move, demonstrating fundamental DOM manipulation in D3.js. The example uses a linear color scale with `d3.interpolateHcl` for the gradient background and D3’s selection methods to bind and update elements. The code also loads a hierarchy dataset and applies `d3.pack` for circular packing, though the visible rendering focuses on the animated face. Rendering is SVG-based with transitions, shown via a video and live code.

Let's make a face with D3.js!

A smiley face drawn in SVG animates as its eyebrows bounce up and down. Built with D3.js v5, the example constructs circles for the eyes and a path using the `arc` generator for the mouth, then applies chained `transition()` calls to shift the eyebrow group’s transform. The code demonstrates core DOM selection and manipulation via `d3.select`, plus attribute setting and SVG grouping, with no external data source.

Let's make a face with D3.js!

A smiley face rendered as an SVG animation demonstrates core D3.js DOM manipulation. The code appends geometric elements—circles for the face and eyes, rectangles for eyebrows, and a path built with `d3.arc` for the mouth—onto an SVG canvas. Chained `transition().duration()` calls animate the eyebrow group’s vertical position, moving them up and down over four seconds. Using `d3.select` to create and transform elements, this example highlights how D3 binds data-independent shapes and drives simple timeline-based motion without external data sources.

Let's make a face with D3.js!

A smiley face rendered with D3.js demonstrates basic DOM manipulation and animation. The code uses D3 selections to append SVG circles for the face and eyes, rectangles for eyebrows, and an arc-generated path for the mouth. A two-stage `transition` moves the eyebrow group vertically over four seconds, creating an animated expression. The face is centered via SVG transforms, with all shapes drawn using D3's `select`, `append`, `attr`, and `transition` APIs.

Let's make a face with D3.js!

A smiley face built entirely with D3.js demonstrates fundamental DOM manipulation and animation. The code uses D3 selections to append and style SVG shapes including circles for the head and eyes, rectangles for the eyebrows, and a path generated with the d3.arc function for the mouth. The eyebrows animate upward and downward via chained transition().duration() calls, shifting their containing group’s transform attribute over four seconds. The example relies on D3 v5, loaded from a CDN, and renders in an SVG canvas without external data.

Let's make a face with D3.js!

An animated smiley face built with D3.js v5 demonstrates fundamental SVG DOM manipulation through `select`, `append`, and `attr` calls. The face comprises circles for eyes, rectangles for eyebrows, and an `arc`-generated path for the mouth, all positioned within an SVG group. Eyebrow movement is driven by chained `transition().duration(2000)` calls that shift the eyebrow group’s `transform` translate value up and down. The code shows direct attribute styling for fill and stroke, with no external data source, relying entirely on hardcoded coordinates and D3’s animation API.

Let's make a face with D3.js!

A smiley face rendered in SVG uses D3.js to demonstrate fundamental DOM manipulation and animation. The code builds the face from primitive shapes—a yellow circle for the head, black circles for the eyes, a path for the mouth—and positions them via group transforms. Two animated eyebrows, implemented as rectangles, shift vertically using chained `transition() .duration(2000)` calls. The example reads SVG dimensions with `parseFloat`, uses helper methods like `select`, `append`, and `attr`, and draws the mouth with the `arc()` shape generator from D3's shape module.
