Datamaps Tutorial

In this tutorial, we create an interactive world map that shows the movie-production counts upon country-specific mouse-hover. This is done using D3 (v3).

To reproduce my results:

  1. Setup a server on your local machine using python. In the src directory run:
python -m http.server 8080
  1. Open up the world_map.html in your preferred browser to interact with it.

OBS: This only works for d3 v3.
