How to Build Venn Diagram Using JavaScript

March 2nd, 2023 by Shachee Swadia

Venn Diagram for Web Using JavaScriptHumans are visual beings, and charts are widely used to boost the UX when it comes to showing a lot of information. Take Venn diagrams, for example, which are great at displaying commonalities and differences between several sets of items. And it’s possible to create a nice interactive one for a web page or app without much hassle.

Scrolling through Twitter before Christmas, I came across a cool Venn diagram comparing Santa Claus, Sauron, Gandolf, and Tom Bombadil. For fun, I reproduced it using JavaScript. That appeared to be easy enough to give me an idea of a tutorial on how to quickly build JS-based Venn diagrams, which I hoped could be helpful to both designers and developers.

So, here I am with the article! The original graphic by Tea with Tolkien that inspired me is used as an illustrative example — let’s build this Venn diagram in JavaScript step by step right now!

How to Create Interactive Timeline Chart with JavaScript

June 17th, 2021 by Shachee Swadia

A laptop screen with an interactive JavaScript Timeline Chart of COVID-19 vaccine development built along this JS charting tutorialI think all of us have come across timelines somewhere or the other; as a means of conveying chronological information, the classic timeline is unmatched, both in the depth of information conveyed and the “cool” factor, when done with a deft creative touch. So, with that said, would you like to learn how to build a timeline chart using JavaScript that both looks great and is simple to create? (Of course, you do!) Follow along with me as I take you through the step-by-step breakdown for developing your own JS timeline with a practical example.

As the world continues to battle with COVID-19, the long-awaited good news is the development of vaccines across the globe. Here, I decided to build an interactive timeline that showcases the phases of Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine development in the United States. To add more contextual information, I also wanted to show approvals from other countries and some related facts, including the dates for the development of the 3 other vaccines approved for usage in the US.

Building JavaScript Radar Chart

July 7th, 2020 by Wayde Herman

Tutorial explaining how to create and code an interactive Radar Chart in JavaScript HTML5Radar charts, which are also referred to as spider charts or radar plots, are a data visualization used to compare observations with multiple quantitative variables. Each variable is encoded to a spoke which are equidistant apart. The higher the value, the further away from the center of the chart the point is made. Radar charts are best used to compare the ‘profile’ of observations and to detect outliers within the data. They are therefore used quite a bit in sports, most notably in basketball and soccer for profiling players.

In this tutorial I will be teaching you how to build your own radar chart with JavaScript and how to use them to help with one of the toughest decisions in gaming history: which starting pokemon to choose!

That’s right, we will be building radar charts to perform data analysis on Bulbasaur, Charmander and Squirtle to determine, once and for all, which is the best choice.
