Static data summaries and charts present a useful data snapshot. But modern web tools give us the power to go much further, allowing us to create interactive data visualizations that can respond to user input and facilitate greater understanding of the data.

If you want to learn how to bring this magic into Drupal, this session is for you. This session will cover:

  • What are data visualizations? Why are they useful?
  • What is C3? Why should I use it?
    • Quick tips on how to use it
    • Feature showcase of what it can do
  • What should I do with my data?
    • How to deal with different data sources (APIs, 3rd party/legacy systems)
  • How to actually manage your visualizations in Drupal via Panels + C3
    • How to create custom panel panes
    • How to feed data to your visualizations
    • Optimal code patterns for your visualizations built on top of Drupal behaviors
    • Including a live code demo!
