Let's make a face with D3.js!

A smiling face is drawn with SVG shapes, and its eyebrows animate upward and downward in a loop. The face is constructed using D3.js v5’s `select` and `append` to create circles for eyes, rectangles for eyebrows, and a `path` for the mouth via the `arc` shape generator. The eyebrows’ movement is driven by chained `transition().duration()` calls that alter the group’s `transform` attribute. The code relies on D3’s DOM manipulation and transition APIs, with all rendering occurring in an SVG viewport.

A D3.js animation constructs a smiling face from SVG shapes and then animates its eyebrows. The face is drawn using circles for the eyes and head, rectangles for the eyebrows, and a path for the mouth, created with the `arc` shape generator. Eyebrow movement occurs through chained `transition().duration()` calls on the group’s `transform` attribute, shifting it vertically. The code uses D3 v5 selection, attributes, and the `arc` API, rendering all elements as SVG within a 960 by 500 canvas.

A smiling face is drawn with SVG shapes, with its eyebrows animating up and down in a repeating loop. The example demonstrates fundamental DOM manipulation in D3.js v5, using `select` and `append` to build circles, rectangles, and a path. The mouth is created with the `d3.arc` API, and the eyebrow motion relies on chained `transition().duration()` calls to alternate the transform attribute, creating a simple, continuous facial animation.

A smiling face built from basic D3.js shapes animates its eyebrows upward and back. The visualization uses D3 v6’s `select` and `append` to construct SVG circles for the skin and eyes, rectangles for the eyebrows, and a `path` defined by `arc()` for the mouth. Eyebrow motion comes from chained `transition().duration().attr()` calls, transforming the eyebrow group’s vertical position. The static SVG canvas is 960 by 500 pixels, with all elements positioned relative to the face’s center.

This example displays a smiling face with animated eyebrows built entirely through D3.js v5 DOM manipulation. The SVG face consists of circles for the eyes and head, a path for the mouth, and rectangles for the eyebrows, all positioned relative to a centered group element. Using D3's selection API (`d3.select`, `d3.append`) and the `transition` method, the eyebrows animate vertically over two seconds, moving up and then returning to their original position. The drawing relies on hardcoded numeric coordinates rather than external data.

A smiley face drawn in SVG animates as its eyebrows bounce upward and settle back down. The example demonstrates fundamental D3.js DOM manipulation by constructing the face from appended shapes—circles for the eyes and head, rectangles for the eyebrows, and a path generated with the `arc` helper for the mouth. A chained `transition` with a two-second duration moves the eyebrow group twice, creating the animation. The code uses D3 v5 selections and attributes on a static SVG canvas.

A smiley face drawn with D3.js animates its eyebrows in a looping up-and-down motion. The example demonstrates fundamental SVG construction using D3 selections and shape generators, building the face from a yellow circle, two eyes, rectangular eyebrows, and an arc-based mouth. The eyebrows transition vertically via chained `transition().duration()` calls, while `d3.arc` computes the mouth path. The code uses `select` and `arc` from D3 v5, with all elements positioned through SVG attributes.

A smiling face drawn in SVG animates as its eyebrows repeatedly rise and fall. The example demonstrates fundamental D3.js DOM manipulation by using `select`, `append`, and `attr` to construct circles, rectangles, and a path for the mouth, with an `arc` generator for the smile. The eyebrow motion is driven by a two-stage `transition` with a two-second duration each, moving a group element vertically to create the expressive loop.
