Make a face with D3.js

Let's make a face with D3.js!

A smiling face drawn with SVG shapes responds to a looping animated transition: the eyebrows move upward, hold, then return. The example demonstrates fundamental D3.js DOM manipulation, building the face from a yellow circle, two dark eyes, rectangular eyebrows, and a smile-shaped path generated with the `d3.arc()` function. D3.js v5 selects the SVG element, appends groups for coordinated positioning, and uses `transition().duration(2000)` to animate the eyebrow group's vertical offset. All elements are styled directly via attributes like `fill` and `stroke` within an 960×500 SVG canvas.

A smiling face built with SVG demonstrates basic D3.js DOM manipulation and animation. Drawn with a yellow circle, two eyes, rectangular eyebrows, and an arc-based mouth, the face animates by moving the eyebrows upward and back down using chained `transition().duration()` calls. The example uses D3 v5’s `select`, `arc`, and `attr` methods to construct and style elements, with the eyebrow displacement triggered automatically on load.

A smiling face built from SVG shapes animates its eyebrows up and down in a looping transition. The example constructs the face from basic geometric elements—a yellow circle for the head, two small circles for eyes, rectangles for brows, and an arc path for the mouth—centered via a translated group. Using D3 v5, the code applies chained `transition()` and `.attr()` calls to move the eyebrow group repeatedly, while the `d3.arc()` helper generates the mouth’s curved outline. The rendering relies on SVG appended directly to the page’s `<svg>` element.

This example shows a yellow smiley face drawn with SVG circles, rectangles, and an arc path, with animated eyebrows that rise and fall in a looping transition. The code uses D3.js v5 selections to append elements to an SVG canvas and `transition().duration()` to move the eyebrow group vertically. Using `d3.arc` for the mouth and fixed pixel offsets for features, it demonstrates fundamental DOM manipulation and chained transitions without external data.

A yellow smiley face drawn with SVG demonstrates fundamental D3.js DOM manipulation and transitions. The code selects the SVG element, appends groups, and builds the face from circles, rectangles, and an arc-generated mouth using `d3.arc`. Two eyebrow rectangles animate upward and back via chained `transition().duration(2000)` calls, shifting their parent group's transform attribute. The example uses D3 v5 and relies on `select` and `arc` from the d3 module.

A smiling face drawn with SVG elements animates its eyebrows and mouth via D3 transitions. The example builds the face from primitive shapes—a yellow circle for the head, circles for eyes, rectangles for brows, and an arc path for the mouth—all positioned within a centered group. Using d3.select and d3.arc, it applies chained transition.attr methods over three-second durations to shift the brows upward and slide the mouth sideways, while static hair paths use CSS stroke styling.

A smiling face made of SVG shapes demonstrates fundamental D3.js DOM manipulation. The code selects an SVG element and appends yellow circles for the head and eyes, black rectangles for eyebrows, and an arc-based path for the mouth. Using `d3.transition` with a two-second duration, the eyebrows animate upward and then back down, creating an expressive movement. The example uses D3 v5's `select`, `append`, and `attr` methods to build and update elements, with the mouth drawn via `d3.arc`.
