A simple bar chart with d3.js

With d3.js it is surprisingly simple to create a bar chart:

d3.select('.bar-chart').
  selectAll('div').
  data([194, 52, 228, 268, 163, 138, 92]).
  enter().
    append('div').
    style ('width', function(d) {return d + "px"}).
    text  (         function(d) {return d       });

For each of the data-elements (194, 52, 268 etc), a new div is appended with its css width style set to the respective px width. Since the divs are transparent per default, a bit of css is needed to make them visible:

.bar-chart div {
  background-color:#fa5;
  margin: 2px;
  color: #713;
  text-align: right}
