Introducing Learn JS Data

Learn JS Data is a new guide introducing JavaScript as a language that can support data processing and manipulation.

While there are many great tutorials and examples for doing data processing in other languages, there appeared to be a deficiency of resources on data munging in JavaScript.

And so, we have started to fill in this gap with LearnJSData.com!

This project can help those who may have some JavaScript experience, but have not really dealt much with data. The guide can also help those who have done data processing in other scripting languages, like Python or R, and now have a need for similar data manipulation tools in JavaScript.

Learn JS Data is meant to be a quick but thorough introduction to the topic. We use a small set of tools and libraries to make JavaScript data processing fun. Readers should be able to easily utilize these tools and techniques in wrangling their own data.
