This example builds a face from scratch using SVG shapes and D3.js version 5, demonstrating basic selection and manipulation of SVG elements. The code logs the D3 object to the console and sets up a blank 960x500 SVG canvas with minimal styling. While the current implementation only initializes the visualization framework, it serves as a foundation for adding facial features programmatically. The example uses standard D3 selections and SVG coordinate systems, with the YouTube video embedded in the README providing additional context on the technique.
