This document discusses using JavaScript for data visualization and graphics. It presents examples of collecting video data using HTML5 APIs, transforming the data with Web Workers and typed arrays, rendering 3D scenes with WebGL and PhiloGL, and interacting with forms. The examples show loading weather data and visualizing it over time by interacting with an HTML5 range slider. The conclusion argues that using HTML5 APIs directly with polyfills is preferable to monolithic frameworks for data visualization applications.
