Nobel Prize Winners
This example loads Nobel Prize laureate data from a CSV file and displays the raw parsed records as JSON in a `<pre>` element. The visualization uses D3 v7’s `csvParse` to transform each row, converting fields like year and prize share into numeric values, while preserving categorical attributes such as category, sex, and birth country. The code demonstrates a state-driven rendering pattern within a Vue-like setup, where asynchronous data fetching triggers re-renders. The dataset spans laureates from 1901 onward, sourced via Kaggle, and the current view focuses on data loading and inspection rather than a graphical chart.
