This dashboard displays daily live births in Germany from 2020 to 2024, plotting 1,826 data points as a line chart with clickable and hoverable circles. The visualization uses React for state management and D3.js's `scaleTime`, `scaleLinear`, `line`, `axisBottom`, and `axisLeft` to render the time series. A tooltip shows the date and birth count on hover, while selected points are highlighted in red.
