Title
From EDA to Data Apps using Observable
Goal
Description
Observable (observablehq.com) has slowly established itself as one of the cornerstones of data visualisation and analytics tools. From providing an online interactive notebook platform, to creating a declarative charting library (Plots), then introducing their Data Analytics static site generator (Framework), and finally introducing reusable Data Visualisation components with live data (Data Apps). This project aims to build learning resources to get started with the essential tools provided by Observable. Typically, the lecture and lab should help learners get the skills needed to build "complex" visualisations using Plots within the notebook, e.g., connecting to a live database and displaying data overlayed on a geographical background (however, the exact scope can be discussed).
