# D3.js Visualisation

## Detailed Guide

Read [the detailed guide](references/detailed-guide.md) before executing this skill. It retains the complete procedure and reference material. Treat its safety, prerequisites, and validation requirements as mandatory. For focused work, load the relevant sections; for end-to-end work, read the guide completely.

## When to use d3.js

**Use d3.js for:**
- Custom visualisations requiring unique visual encodings or layouts
- Interactive explorations with complex pan, zoom, or brush behaviours
- Network/graph visualisations (force-directed layouts, tree diagrams, hierarchies, chord diagrams)
- Geographic visualisations with custom projections
- Visualisations requiring smooth, choreographed transitions
- Publication-quality graphics with fine-grained styling control
- Novel chart types not available in standard libraries

**Consider alternatives for:**
- 3D visualisations - use Three.js instead

## Limitations
- Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
- Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
- Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
