How to Make Treemap Using JS
June 8th, 2022 by Awan Shrestha
Treemap visualizations are widely used in hierarchical data analysis. If you need to build one but have never done that before, you might think the process is somewhat complicated. Well, not necessarily. I decided to make a step-by-step tutorial explaining how to create awesome interactive treemap charts with ease using JavaScript. And you’re gonna love the illustrations!
Are we alone in the universe? A question every one of us has asked ourselves at some point. While we are thinking about the odds of the Earth being the only habitable planet in the universe, or not, one of the things we might consider is how big the universe is. Let’s look at that with the help of treemaps! In this tutorial, we will be visualizing the scale of the 10 largest galaxies in the known universe using the treemapping technique.
So, would you like to know how to quickly build a JS-based treemap chart? Follow me in this stepwise tutorial and learn in an easy, fun way!

How to Create Sankey Diagram (with JavaScript)
May 25th, 2022 by Shachee Swadia
Would you like to learn how to quickly create a really cool chart called a Sankey diagram? You’re in the right place! Together, we will build an elegant Sankey chart using JavaScript, and then you’ll be able to produce such data visualizations by yourself with no hassle at all.
Depicting the flow of values from one set to another, Sankey diagrams are ideal when you need to graphically represent a many-to-many mapping between two domains or multiple paths through a number of stages. So, competence in making them will be a great addition to the skill set of anyone dealing with data visualization design and development.
110 years after it sank on April 15, 1912, the Titanic still holds us in its thrall, piquing people’s imagination. Now, we will use the JS Sankey diagramming technique to look at its passengers and crew and find out who survived and perished based on gender, age, and ticket class. Follow along!

Visualizing Abortion Data & Impact of Overturning Roe v. Wade — DataViz Weekly
May 13th, 2022 by AnyChart Team
A leaked draft of a U.S. Supreme Court opinion suggests that the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, establishing federal constitutional protection of abortion rights, could be overturned. If the justices strike down the ruling, each state will be able to determine the legality of abortions.
The document, which was later confirmed to be authentic, cast abortion rights back into the center of the political discourse in the United States. In the wake of that, we decided to make a special edition of DataViz Weekly to show you how some of the top publications — The Washington Post, Bloomberg, Reuters, and FiveThirtyEight — used data visualization to communicate the situation with abortions in the country and what is likely to change if the Supreme Court eventually overturns Roe.
