This example demonstrates D3’s scale and axis functions by rendering an empty plotting area with a gray inner rectangle and labeled axes. It uses `d3.scaleLinear` to map data values from 0 to 100 to pixel coordinates, and `d3.axisBottom` and `d3.axisLeft` to generate tick marks and labels along the bottom and left edges. The visualization is drawn into an SVG container, with margins defined for the plot frame. No dataset is shown; the focus is purely on constructing a coordinate system with D3’s low-level utilities.

Scales and Axes

This example demonstrates how D3.js maps data values to screen coordinates using linear scales and renders labeled axes. A grey inner rectangle spans the plotting area, and the `scaleLinear` function transforms the domain 0–100 into pixel positions for both x and y dimensions. The `axisBottom` and `axisLeft` components generate tick marks and labels along the bottom and left edges, while the `join` method efficiently manages SVG elements. The visualization is created using D3 version 7.8.5, with the chart’s dimensions and margins dynamically calculated from the container size.

Scales and Axes

This example demonstrates a basic Cartesian coordinate system with a gray plotting area and labeled axes. It uses D3.js version 7.9.0, specifically the `d3.scaleLinear` function to map data values from 0 to 100 to pixel coordinates, and the `d3.axisBottom` and `d3.axisLeft` functions to generate the x- and y-axes. The chart is rendered inside an SVG container that is sized to fit the available width and height of the target element. The code structure uses D3’s `select` and `join` methods to create and update the SVG elements, following a declarative pattern where the visualization is defined as a function of the container’s dimensions.

Fork of Scales and Axes

This example demonstrates D3 scales and axes by rendering a blank chart with a gray inner rectangle and labeled x and y axes. It uses `d3.scaleLinear` to map input data from 0 to 100 into pixel coordinates, with margins defining the plot area. The axes are created using `d3.axisBottom` and `d3.axisLeft`, which are appended to SVG groups and positioned via margin-based transforms. The code imports from the D3 v7 library and dynamically sizes the SVG to its container.

Scale & Axes

This example demonstrates the fundamental role of scales and axes in D3 data visualization. A gray plotting area is framed by a linear x-axis and y-axis, both spanning a domain from 0 to 100. The code uses `d3.scaleLinear` to map data values to screen coordinates, with `axisLeft` and `axisBottom` from D3 to render the ticks and labels. Margins are explicitly calculated to position the axes and the inner chart area, while the axes module manages the axis generation and text labels.

Fork of Scales and Axes

This example demonstrates how to construct a basic Cartesian coordinate system using D3 scales and axes. A dark grey inner rectangle is drawn within the SVG canvas to define the plotting area, while a linear scale maps the domain 0–100 to the horizontal and vertical pixel ranges. The bottom and left axes are rendered using `d3.axisBottom` and `d3.axisLeft` respectively. The `d3.scaleLinear` API handles the coordinate transformations, and the visualization responds to container resizing through a `ResizeObserver`.

Fork of Scales and Axes

This example demonstrates how to construct a basic scatter plot framework using D3 scales and axes, with a gray inner rectangle delineating the plotting area. Linear scales map the domain from 0 to 100 to pixel coordinates, while `axisBottom` and `axisLeft` render tick marks and labels along the bottom and left edges. The visualization uses `scaleLinear` and the axis generators from D3 v7, with an SVG container sized to its parent element. The inner rectangle's fill color and margins are configurable through the `viz` function parameters, showing how to set up reusable chart scaffolding without plotted data.

Fork of Scales and Axes

This fork of the D3 “Scales and Axes” example demonstrates how to construct and position a linear x-axis and y-axis using the `scaleLinear`, `axisBottom`, and `axisLeft` APIs. It renders a light gray plot area and places the axes at the bottom and left margins of the SVG canvas. The code uses the `select` and `join` methods from D3 to create SVG elements, with margins controlling the inner plot dimensions. The example has no external data source, instead drawing axes for a fixed 0–100 domain.

D3 - Axes

This example demonstrates how D3’s axis components render tick marks and labels for a linear scale. Four separate axes—left, right, top, and bottom—are drawn inside an SVG container, all sharing the same `d3.scaleLinear` domain of 0 to 100 mapped to a 400-pixel range. The code uses `d3.axisLeft`, `d3.axisRight`, `d3.axisTop`, and `d3.axisBottom` to generate the axes, then attaches each to a corresponding `<g>` group using `selection.call`. The visualization highlights the standard D3 approach for orienting axes around a plot area.
