D3 (Data-Driven Documents) is a powerful JavaScript library for creating interactive data visualizations in web browsers. It provides a wide range of tools for binding data to DOM elements and generating dynamic graphics, including charts, graphs, and maps. D3 leverages SVG, HTML, and CSS to create visually appealing and customizable visualizations.
Compared to other data visualization libraries like Chart.js and Highcharts, D3 offers more flexibility and control over the visual representation of data. It allows for complex and custom visualizations but requires a steeper learning curve. D3 is actively maintained and widely used in the data visualization community.
