This interactive line chart, built with React and D3 v5, visualizes the percentage of a country's population affected by mental illness and unemployment over time, with a dropdown menu to select among six American countries. The SVG rendering uses D3's `scaleTime` and `scaleLinear` for the axes, and natural cubic spline curves via `line().curve(curveNatural)` to smooth the trends. A custom color legend distinguishes the two metrics, shown as green (mental illness) and orange (unemployment) lines, using data from a CSV file hosted on Gist.

AI-generated description

This visualization was constructed using the D3 & React.

The idea behind this visualization was to show the percentage of the population of various countries in America that suffer from some mental illness over the years.

Questions I wanted to answer with this visualization

  • How has the percentage of mental diseases in some American countries changed over time?
  • Has there been a decrease in people with mental illnesses, or rather an increase?

The data used in this visualization can be found on Gist here: Mental Healths Disorders Dataset
