About

The purpose of this site is for me to practice and present web-based data visualizations. I have a separate site where I present more detailed analyses than these presented here. (spencerschien.info)

In addition to serving as a presentation platform, this site is also a bit of a playground for me to learn web development (i.e. HTML, CSS, JavaScript). As such, this entire site is hard coded by me.

Data Visualizations

Quote Getter

This is a fun little script that plays to my love of quotes. I keep a spreadsheet of quotes I like, so I thought it would be cool to create a random quote getter from this sheet. The sheet is read in using D3, and then a random index is selected for the quote, author, and source work of the quote. Basic JavaScript is used to bind the data to specific DOM elements.
