Jon Harris

Jon has spent the last 10 years working in the field of interactive data visualization and holds a Master’s Degree in Computer Science. A graduate research project into graph drawing theory led to him being hired to work for a visualization startup in NYC, and he has been in the field ever since. Most recently Jon has been focused on building realtime responsive web applications enabling users to gain instantaneous insight into their data from any device. Outside of work, he has a voracious appetite for traveling and reading. Jon currently resides in Montreal, Canada where he practices his French while learning the names of the many fine craft beers the city has to offer.

Introduction to Data Visualization

Introduction to data visualization techniques and best practices and how to implement them on the web or mobile platforms.

Visualizing data provides users with valuable insight into their data that would be difficult or impossible to obtain through text-only formats. This talk will provide participants with an overview of data visualization techniques along with best practices to maximize their value for the target audience. The talk will conclude with a demonstration of the Marquee charting library which was designed to facilitate adherence of visualization best practices on the web and mobile platforms.

Intro to React JS and Marquee Charts

Introduction to Facebook’s React JavaScript library and Marquee charting library.

Facebook’s React JavaScript library has revolutionized the development of user interfaces for the web. This talk will provide an introduction to the key concepts behind React and guide participants through some straight forward examples of building and deploying web applications using React. Building on this foundation, the sample web application will be enhanced to show a variety of data visualization examples made possible by the Marquee charting library’s React components.
