JavaScript for data science?

June 4, 2021 By editor

Arquero is a data manipulation library written in JavaScript. It’s modelled on the excellent R dyplr library.

JavaScript isn’t known as a data science language. However, it’s probably the best language for data visualisation—and Google’s relentless optimisation of the V8 engine means it has better performance that Python or R.

The JavaScript ecosystem lacks extensive data science libraries, but Arquero coupled with, say, D3.js makes for a capable data visualisation platform.
