This example renders a colorful spiral of 50 circles connected by thin, semi-transparent lines. Generated procedurally using trigonometric functions, the circles vary in size and hue, creating a dynamic, decorative pattern against a dark background. The visualization is built with D3 v7, using selections and data joins to efficiently draw and update both the `<circle>` and `<line>` elements. The code recalculates the layout on window resize to maintain its centered composition.

Fork of Circles with D3

This example renders a generative spiral of 500 semi-transparent circles that grow and shift in a golden-hued gradient across a pale green canvas. The visualization uses D3 v7’s `select` API and the `.join()` operator to declaratively create and update an SVG, computing each circle’s `cx`, `cy`, `r`, and `fill` from sine and cosine functions of its index. The code demonstrates D3’s modern “join” pattern for idempotent state management, with the container’s dimensions driving the spiral’s center and radius.

My Fork of Circles with D3

This example generates an animated spiral galaxy of 420 circles in SVG using D3 v7. Each circle is positioned at a radius proportional to the square root of its index and an angle based on the golden angle, with colors assigned via `d3.interpolateRainbow`. The circles transition from radius zero to their final size with staggered delays, followed by an infinite sinusoidal pulse animation using `transition.attr`. The visualization is centered in a fixed container with a light green background, rendering purely through D3’s data join and transition APIs in an ES module.

Spiral Intersection Design

A spiral of intersection emerges from concentric black and white circles, with a web of white lines radiating from the center and connecting points around a circular path. The design uses D3 v5 to generate 25 points, map them into spokes, and create wheel-like connections between every ninth point. Built with SVG, the code draws these lines with a stroke width of five, layered over the static circle pattern, all rendered against a black background.

Creative Circles by Charan

This visualization displays a spiral galaxy of 420 circles that bloom outward from the center, colored with the rainbow spectrum. The circles are positioned using the golden angle and square-root scaling, creating a phyllotaxis-like pattern. Built with D3 v7 and SVG, each circle transitions from radius 0 to its full size with staggered delays, then continuously pulses via chained `transition()` calls with `easeSinInOut`, demonstrating D3's animation capabilities with `interpolateRainbow` for color mapping.

D3 color spiral

A D3 color spiral arranges named CSS colors in a circular arc around a central point. Each color is rendered as a slice using a d3.arc with a large outer radius, creating a radial gradient of hues. The code fetches color data from a CSV file via d3.csv, then uses d3.pie to map each row to a segment. Built with React and ReactDOM, the visualization displays the colors in an SVG canvas sized 960 by 500 pixels.

Fork of Circles with D3

This visualization generates a dynamic abstract composition of nested rectangles and circles. The code uses D3.js (v7) to create an SVG canvas, then recursively draws a spiraling sequence of colored rectangles based on the golden ratio. Each rectangle is filled with a randomly generated hex color, while the background uses a light green tint. The rendering relies on D3's `select`, `selectAll`, `data`, `join`, and `append` methods to manage SVG elements and dynamically resize the canvas to fit its container. The final image resembles a colorful geometric fractal spiral.

Spiral Circle

Two groups of 200 white squares with black outlines form a spiral pattern, one rotating clockwise, the other counterclockwise, within circular clips. Animated by a timer, each square orbits a circle while spinning on its own axis, creating a hypnotic, ever-changing geometric illusion. This D3 v3 example uses SVG, `d3.range`, `d3.timer`, and `selectAll` with `append` to build and animate the rects, clipped by `clipPath` definitions for upper and lower halves.

Fork of Circles with D3

This interactive visualization displays seven semi-transparent circles with distinct colors and varying radii on a light green background. Built with D3.js, it demonstrates fundamental plotting techniques within an SVG container. The code uses D3’s `select` and `.join` methods to manage the SVG element and circles, setting attributes like `cx`, `cy`, `r`, and `fill` from a static data array. A method-chaining approach applies the circle properties, while an opacity value creates a layered, overlapping visual effect across the canvas.
