TechLaidoffs
This visualization shows global layoffs over time, plotting each incident’s laid-off count against its timestamp to reveal trends in workforce reductions worldwide. The chart uses a D3 v5 line generator with a basis curve, mapping time to the x-axis and layoff counts to a linear y-axis with abbreviated tick formatting. Data is loaded from a CSV file via `d3.csv`, parsed into dates and numbers, and rendered as an SVG with maroon stroked paths and labeled axes. The y-axis labels are formatted using `d3.format`, and the line path is smoothed using `d3.curveBasis`. The visualization includes a title and axis labels, with scales created via `d3.scaleTime` and `d3.scaleLinear`.
