D3 Without SVG - Jim Vallandingham
NYT recently did some work with D3, forgoing SVG. I think with minimal modification, D3 could actually make a keen front-end framework.

Thinking with Joins
So D3 prioritizes manipulating the elements -- the enter and exit methods correspond to views, not data. This seems right to me. Data is just data -- when it changes, the code should react to that.

d3.js
D3 allows you to bind arbitrary data to a Document Object Model (DOM), and then apply data-driven transformations to the document. As a trivial example, you can use D3 to generate a basic HTML table from an array of numbers. Or, use the same data to create an interactive SVG bar chart with smooth transitions and interaction.
A truly impressive vehicle for data visualization. Uses SVG and DOM elements. Animation and transformation happens by applying properties to elements.

It looks powerful, intuitive and easy-to-learn.

Presents all kinds of interesting possibilities, such as exposing the values in a crawl-able fashion.
