A zoomable sunburst visualization displays hierarchical data with a fictional dataset of restaurant categories across six North American cities. Users click arcs to zoom and transition between hierarchy levels, with smooth 750ms animated rotations and resizing. The example uses D3 v5’s `d3.hierarchy`, `d3.partition`, and `d3.arc` to compute the layout, with `transition.attrTween` handling the interpolation between view states. Labels and arc opacity dynamically adjust based on visibility. Data is loaded from the `@observablehq/flare` module via the Observable standard library in vanilla JavaScript.

  • with D3 v5 (based on the changes in v5) <br></br> Ported from this Observable notebook for this forum thread. Many thanks to Bryan Gingechen who answered my question about the necessary steps to get from an (Observable) JavaScript notebook to a vanilla JavaScript index.html. He presented his solution on blockbuilder.org
