Tableau is a form of data visualisation software
It is user friendly and largely relies on “drag and drop” methods for building infographics
It is easy to learn and use, and can create fantastic graphs in a short period of time
But it has its limitations, in particular for dynamic infographics with a lot of user interaction features
Tableau

What is D3?
D3 is short for Data-Driven Documents
D3.js is a JavaScript
library used to produce
visualisations that are dynamic and interactive
D3 is easily compatible with
HTML, so is perfect for
sharing visualisations on
the web
D3 allows the user huge
control over what the final visualisation
looks like
However, it can take a lot of time to build relatively
simple graphs and refreshing the underlying data can be difficult also

Two methods:
Use Tableau’s API and host a Tableau dashboard on a
webpage that uses D3 for interactivity
Insert a D3 URL link to be displayed on a tableau
dashboard
