This example creates a smiley face in an SVG canvas using D3.js, with animated eyes that repeatedly expand and contract their pupils. It demonstrates fundamental DOM manipulation through D3 selections, appending circles, paths, and groups, while leveraging the arc generator to shape the eyes, eyebrows, and mouth. The code specifically uses d3.select and d3.arc from D3 v5, and the pupil animation is driven by chained transition calls that alternate the circles’ radii. The face is centered via a translated group, and positioning relies on hard-coded constants for eye spacing and offsets.

Let's make a face with D3.js!

This example demonstrates fundamental DOM manipulation with D3.js by constructing an animated smiley face in an SVG. The code uses `d3.select` to append circles for the eyes, rectangles for the eyebrows, and an `arc()` generator for the mouth. A chained `transition()` with a 2000-millisecond duration moves the eyebrows up and down repeatedly, showcasing simple animation. The face is centered with a `g` element, and all shapes are drawn using D3’s SVG helper methods.

Let's make a face with D3.js!

This example demonstrates fundamental DOM manipulation with D3.js by constructing a smiley face from SVG shapes, including a circle head, rectangular eyes, and an arc-based mouth. The face’s eyebrows animate vertically in a looping transition, moving up and then returning to their original position over four seconds. The code uses D3 v5 selections and the `arc` helper to generate the mouth path, while `transition().duration()` drives the eyebrow movement. The entire figure is centered within a 960×500 SVG canvas, with styling applied via an external stylesheet.

Let's make a face with D3.js!

This example shows a smiley face drawn with SVG circles, rectangles, and an arc for the mouth. Its eyebrows bounce up and down repeatedly in an animated loop. The code demonstrates fundamental DOM manipulation with D3.js v5, using `select`, `append`, and chained `transition().duration()` calls to animate the eyebrow group’s transform. The face uses hardcoded dimensions, no external data, and renders entirely through SVG primitives within a 960x500 canvas.

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 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!

A smiley face built with D3.js demonstrates core DOM manipulation through SVG elements, including circles for the eyes, rectangles for eyebrows, and an arc-generated mouth. Animated transitions move the eyebrows upward and back down over two-second intervals, showing how `transition().duration()` sequences chained animations. The face is centered using SVG group transforms, while D3 v5’s `select` and `arc` APIs handle element selection and path generation. The example highlights fundamental D3 concepts like attribute setting, coordinate positioning, and timed state changes within a static SVG canvas.
