D3 Parts
Custom JS

}

D3 to Vue

var dataSet = [10, 20, 30];

d3.select('svg').selectAll()
  .data(dataSet)
  .enter()
  .append('circle')
  .attr({
    r: d => d,
    cx: (d, i) => i * 100 + 50,
    cy: 50,
    fill: '#9b59b6'
  });
<svg></svg>

D3 to Vue

<svg>
  <circle
    v-for="(d, i) in dataSet"
    :r="d"
    :cx="i * 100 + 50"
    cy="50"
    fill="#9b59b6"
  />
</svg>
new Vue({
  el: 'svg',
  data: { dataSet: [10, 20, 30] }
})
d3.select('svg').selectAll()
  .data(dataSet)
  .enter()
  .append('circle')
  .attr({
    r: d => d,
    cx: (d, i) => i * 100 + 50,
    cy: 50,
    fill: '#9b59b6'
  });
<circle
  v-for="(d, i) in dataSet"
  :r="d"
  :cx="i * 100 + 50"
  cy="50"
  fill="#9b59b6"
 />

Animations

data: { numbers: [] },

mounted () {
  this.randomize()
  setInterval(this.randomize, 1000)
},

methods: {
  randomize () {
    this.numbers =
      Array.apply(null, Array(10))
      .map(() => 0.1 + 0.9 * Math.random())
  }
}

Every second...

...change the data

<g v-for="(num, i) in numbers"
   :style="barTransform(num, i)">
  <rect x="0" y="0" width="40" :height="num * 300"/>
  <text :x="20" :y="20">{{ ~~(num * 100) }}</text>
</g>

For every data point:

  • draw a bar and label
  • and setup it's size based on data value
barTransform(num, i) {
  const x = 15 + i * 50
  const y = 300 - num * 300
  return `transform: translate(${x}px, ${y}px)`
}

Custom behaviours

  • very easy to add in Vue's computed
horizontalTicks() {
  if (window.innerWidth < 640) {
    return this.generatedTicks.filter(
      (n, index) => (index % 2 === 0));
  }

  return this.generatedTicks;
},

Draw less ticks

for small screens

And hey, it's SVG! We can do @events with that too!

<svg>
  <path
    :d="myCalculatedPath"
    @click="sendMissionToMars"
  />
<svg>

Serious stuff...

How about...

...running a 60fps animation

interactive

Just a bunch of circles

<circle v-for="(c, i) in circles"
  :r="(1 - i / 60) * 0.07" :cx="c.x" :cy="c.y" />
followMouse() {
  let x = this.mouseX
  let y = this.mouseY
  const circles = this.circles
  const force = this.force
  for (let i = 0; i < circles.length; i++) {
    const circle = circles[i]
    x = circle.x = lerp(force, x, circle.x)
    y = circle.y = lerp(force, y, circle.y)
  }
}

Following mouse and each other

Every frame...

Gather

input

Simulate

Display

Simulation loop

Gather input

mounted () {
  document.addEventListener('mousemove', this.capturePos)
},

methods: {
   capturePos ($ev) {
      const size = Math.min(innerWidth, innerHeight)
      const offsetX = (size - innerWidth) / 2
      const offsetY = (size - innerHeight) / 2
      this.mouseX = (offsetX + $ev.clientX) / size
      this.mouseY = (offsetY + $ev.clientY) / size
    }
}

Bind some events

Protip: @event also work well for local stuff

Math voodoo to convert event position to uniform scale-independent svg space

<svg viewBox="0 0 1 1">
svg {
  position: absolute;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
}

Simulate

60FPS?

observed data update => render

requestAnimationFrame(render)
requestAnimationFrame(mutateData)

Simulate

const timestep = 1000 / 120
let accumulator = 0
let lastTime = performance.now()

const tick = (t) => {
  accumulator += t - lastTime
  lastTime = t
  if(accumulator > 250)
    accumulator = 0
  
  while(accumulator > timestep) {
    this.followMouse()
    accumulator -= timestep
  }
  requestAnimationFrame(tick)
}
requestAnimationFrame(tick)

Every frame:

calculate new state

Keep track of real time

In fixed timesteps

until we kept up with real time

schedule next frame

escape the spiral of death

(ignore too much accumulated time)

Display?

followMouse() {
  let x = this.mouseX
  let y = this.mouseY
  const circles = this.circles
  const force = this.force
  for (let i = 0; i < circles.length; i++) {
    const circle = circles[i]
    x = circle.x = lerp(force, x, circle.x)
    y = circle.y = lerp(force, y, circle.y)
  }
}

reactive!

<circle v-for="(c, i) in circles"
  :r="(1 - i / 60) * 0.07" :cx="c.x" :cy="c.y" />

Simulation loop

Is it fast enough?

if you stick to vector:

SVG > canvas

Physics?

Is it fast enough for...

Is it fast like...

more than enough?

Thank You!
