Introduction of Concept

• Total dependency ratio is a measure showing the number of dependents, aged 0 to 14 and over the age of 65, to the total population aged 15 to 64. This indicator gives insight into the amount of people of nonworking age compared to the number of those of working age.

• Old-age dependency ratio is aged over the age of 65, to the total population aged 15 to 64.

Data Source

The data is from United Nations: World Population Prospects 2017.

Development

This project uses NPM and Webpack. To get started, clone the repository and install dependencies like this:

cd dataviz-project-template
npm install

You'll need to build the JavaScript bundle using WebPack, using this command:

npm run build

To see the page run, you'll need to serve the site using a local HTTP server.

npm install -g http-server
http-server

Now the site should be available at localhost:8080.

For automatic refreshing during development, you can start the Webpack Dev Server like this:

npm run serve
