@chrismarxI ❤️ this so much. If you haven't used @observablehq, I highly recommend it. It's a super easy way to get started with #javascript for #datascience or #gis. You can learn JS and forget about #python, #rstats or anything else and easily share everything you do bcuz... internetz :)

@RebeccaSlatkinOh my freaking god observablehq.com is amazing. when my mom sees how much free time I spend making interactive static charts, scatter plots, line charts, parallel coordinates etc she's going to abandon her dream of grandchildren once and for all

@ludwigschubertWhen prototyping, implementing and sharing ideas becomes so easy that it hardly feels like publishing, then it is the future of scientific publishing. <3 @observablehq !

@denikI'd be a thankless liar if I said @observablehq makes me 20x faster. I'm at least 100x faster 🚀🚀🚀 🙏 @observablehq team!

@mournerFor an entire week, I wrote code purely in an @observablehq notebook (rather than a code editor) for a cool algorithm I'm working on, and it was such a blast! This really feels like a coding environment of the future. Try observablehq.com if you haven't, it's amazing. ❤️

@palewireI have to say, one of the most impressive things about @observablehq is how it somehow made responsive d3 charts just work. I'll be damned if this kind of thing didn't drive me crazy for years.
