Summary
In this chapter, you learned the fundamentals of animation in D3.js, and by the end of the chapter, applied these simple concepts to make what appears to be a very complex data visualization.
We started with examples of transitions, using them to animate attributes from one state to another across an interval of time, and chaining animations together. Next we looked at handling animation without keyframes using tweening. We also took a quick look at interpolation.
We finished by examining timers, and then applied all the concepts of the chapter to progressively render a large set of data, giving the viewer of the visualization a sense of how data changes by animating time.
In the next chapter, we will examine changing the visuals when the ...
