Awesome D3
This list keeps track of interesting D3js libraries, plugins and utilities.
We decided not to list tutorials, resources or concepts here, because there is already a very good list of readings out there you can check out and contribute to.
Curators: Moritz Klack and Christopher Möller of webkid.io
You can also explore the list with our interactive D3 Discovery tool.
