We recently announced Observable Notebooks 2.0 with a new, open notebook file format + desktop app. Now, we’ve added Python & Node.js data loaders — special cells that run at build time, for better stability and performance. Learn more 👉 buff.ly/WyS5Pn0


Slow-loading tables & overworked browsers can bog down analysis when you're exploring large datasets. Learn how table virtualization in Observable Canvases keeps data work fast & fluid — even with big data, and when viewing complex, branching analyses: buff.ly/7cfqsQA


Treemaps help you go beyond donut charts and stacked bars to visualize parts of a whole for hierarchical data. Learn how canvases put state-of-the-art, interactive charts like treemaps, Sankey diagrams, bump charts, and more at your fingertips: buff.ly/DaE8zgO


Self-serve analytics sounds great — that is, until tools overwhelm or constrain users, and adoption tanks. Our VP of Sales, Trevor Eddy, shares how collaborative analytics delivers insights and finally fulfills the promise of self-serve BI: buff.ly/TQ8qtcw

Sankey diagrams make it easy to see how quantities flow through a system, but they're tough to build from scratch. In Observable Canvases, you can create Sankey diagrams (plus maps, beeswarms, & more) in minutes — all optimized for clarity & performance: buff.ly/gsd0cpg


Bump charts show how rankings shift over time, and are a great option when order matters more than absolute values. In Observable Canvases, you can now build & share responsive bump charts with just a few clicks. See what's new in our summer release: buff.ly/ZDxrAvt


For one of the most common operations in all of data wrangling, implementing UI-based data joins is anything but straightforward. Software engineer Tony Sullivan shares some unexpected challenges behind joins and how we handle them in Observable Canvases: buff.ly/4FRU9C9


Observable Canvases make it lightweight to share interactive charts and tables as a natural extension of your data analysis. Embed canvas nodes into internal data apps, or draw a frame around part of your canvas to generate a tidy dashboard. Learn more: buff.ly/Bw8nukG


In Observable Canvases, we’re putting advanced, interactive charts at your fingertips. Make Sankey diagrams, beeswarm charts, arc maps, bump charts, and more in just a few clicks. Learn how canvases streamline data visualization and analysis: buff.ly/ATVg0sw
