You will build a data dashboard out of flexible Angular 2 components. Towards the end of this volume you will learn to leverage a few advanced features and functionalities such as incorporating real-time data streams, and adding interactivity and animations.</p> <p>This course will provide you with the knowledge base and skill set to visualize virtually any data set and allow your audience to interact with these visualizations to gain deeper insight.</p> <h1>Style and Approach</h1> <p>This video uses a step-by-step tutorial approach and will explain all the steps involved in creating an Angular 2 app and integrating the latest D3.js library, D3 version 4.
