SVG is a markup language for graphics. D3 is not limited to SVG. You can also use D3 to create visualizations using [canvas](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Canvas_API) or [HTML elements](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML), for example, but you will usually see it use SVG. You can write SVG directly in Observable using the HTML cell type. This section is based on [this notebook](https://observablehq.com/@nyuvis/d3-introduction). ### Circles To begin, we'll draw a circle. We'll add an [outer `

``
``2e:T4df,### Rectangles Another SVG element that we will often use is [``](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Element/rect), for rectangles. The `x` and `y` attributes of the rectangle set the position of its top-left corner. The `width` and `height` attributes then set its width and height. ### Lines To draw a straight line from one point to another, we can use the [``](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Element/line) element. The attributes `x1`, `y1`, `x2`, and `y2` define the starting and ending coordinates of the line. `stroke` sets the color and `stroke-width` sets the thickness. ### Path To draw more complex lines, we use the [``](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Tutorial/Paths) element. The most important attribute is `d`, which defines the shape of the path. For example: `` Will first move (`M`) to coordinate 10,10, then will draw a horizontal line (`H`) until x is 90, then draw a vertical line (`V`) until y is 90, then will draw a horizontal line (`H`) until x is 50, and finally draw a line (`L`) to coordinate 10,10. The paths can be more complex, with curves and arcs, there are many resources online that cover paths.2f:T5d2,30:T4dc,Once you bind data to a selection with `selection.join()`, D3 manages these three states for you in each cycle. When you call the selection for the first time - there are no `circle` nodes, though we have 20 data items. Those data items then will be selected during the `Enter` phase, at which point, if there is no `circle` tag for them, one will be appended to the svg for them. The data binding means that the array passed into `data(some_array)` is passed down to every operation that is called on selected tags. That means that even without a `for` loop, every one of the `attr()` calls in the code above iterates over items from the array (in this case, the iterator is named `circ`, but `d` is often use, and you can choose any name.) Once every data item has a corresponding `circle` tag, they will be drawn during the `Update` phase, and when a data items is removed from the dataset but a `circle` tag remains for it, it is moved to the `Exit` phase where the tag can be removed. This is all extremely useful for creating dynamic visualizations. Note that instead of `join()`, you can use `Enter()`, `Update()`, and `Exit()` independently as selectors (if, for example, you need to do something beyond appending or removing tags.)31:[{"id":"5cfeccbb5eb962525ade94a66c8380adac96ce1af520c86de676be42de9942fbdf67d5b9eb17b235a42dd2946e172e1596e3c6e3789c3c5d532c992999186ea8","href":"https://static.observableusercontent.com/files/5cfeccbb5eb962525ade94a66c8380adac96ce1af520c86de676be42de9942fbdf67d5b9eb17b235a42dd2946e172e1596e3c6e3789c3c5d532c992999186ea8","name":"svg practice.png","type":"image/png","lastModified":1729502238824.043,"size":36179},{"id":"26b48a756c0cd5ef5639f37a4b3f8615d58edfd3e6b388a75b338a72ea7cb02ef2db4c3196ab17089a93e99dbe249cd6cfa7322bdb47047c419b2bbe75c7603c","href":"https://static.observableusercontent.com/files/26b48a756c0cd5ef5639f37a4b3f8615d58edfd3e6b388a75b338a72ea7cb02ef2db4c3196ab17089a93e99dbe249cd6cfa7322bdb47047c419b2bbe75c7603c","name":"statesD3.png","type":"image/png","lastModified":1729579257195.238,"size":112255}] 2b:{"id":"a617d842cb84266e","slug":null,"title":"Intro to D3","thumbnail":"49e3b8e7b5c25c76853ac31b4ed41e895e2facb91573182f4e68e995d0ccb899","access_level":"public","create_time":"$D2024-10-20T07:57:24.112Z","update_time":"$D2024-10-22T20:11:35.956Z","view_time":null,"first_public_time":"$D2025-10-21T09:54:07.213Z","has_unpublished_edits":null,"fork":false,"stars":1,"starred":false,"owner":{"type":"team","id":"a03ba8d7c36f4ece","login":"nurki-kirshenbaum-ws","name":"Nurki Kirshenbaum's Workspace","avatar_url":"https://avatars-next.observableusercontent.com/5f28bec0774ac6e0cbea5811c547c9b3f3bec2873a41ab68be5e16615ef40f44","tier":"starter_2024"},"version":244,"publish_version":null,"role":null,"authored":false,"authors":[{"type":"individual","id":"b4cff2d12cf30147","login":"nurki-kirshenbaum","name":"Nurki Kirshenbaum","avatar_url":"https://avatars-next.observableusercontent.com/6cec06e1b4c99cbd0dc4384bbf946c15f1482285f331d6a304e57ca99aff9bb7","tier":null}],"members":[{"type":"individual","id":"b4cff2d12cf30147","login":"nurki-kirshenbaum","name":"Nurki Kirshenbaum","avatar_url":"https://avatars-next.observableusercontent.com/6cec06e1b4c99cbd0dc4384bbf946c15f1482285f331d6a304e57ca99aff9bb7","tier":null,"role":"editor"},{"type":"team","id":"a03ba8d7c36f4ece","login":"nurki-kirshenbaum-ws","name":"Nurki Kirshenbaum's Workspace","avatar_url":"https://avatars-next.observableusercontent.com/5f28bec0774ac6e0cbea5811c547c9b3f3bec2873a41ab68be5e16615ef40f44","tier":"starter_2024","role":"editor"}],"comments":[],"custom_thumbnail":false,"trashed":false,"lapsed":null,"subscribed":null,"forks":63,"collection":null,"type":"notebook","body":{"title":"Intro to D3","cells":[{"id":0,"value":"# Intro to D3","pinned":false,"hidden":false,"mode":"md","author":"$undefined","summary":"$undefined","output":"","database":"$undefined"},{"id":5,"value":"Since the Observable platform is written for D3, you will find a lot of documentation about it here.
