Anything else to add?

I am a computational journalist and senior data producer for CBC News.

SDA is born out of the frustration of switching between Python, R, and JavaScript to produce data journalism projects. Usually, data crunching and analysis are done with Python or R, and interactive data visualizations are coded in JavaScript. However, being proficient in multiple programming languages is hard. Why can't we do everything in JS?

The missing piece in the JavaScript/TypeScript ecosystem was an easy-to-use and performant library for data analysis. This is why SDA was created!

Thank you for your consideration! :)
