React can make your D3 amazing. Want to animate 20,000 elements with React? I'll show you. Want to build a complex dataviz? You'll know how. Want to write maintainable dataviz components that you can reuse in any project? I gotchu, fam. This talk shows you everything I've learned about creating reusable and maintainable graphical components over 3 years of hammering away at the question: 'Jeez D3 sure is hard to learn, how do we make this easier?'
