This scatter plot visualizes cyclist performance data from the freeCodeCamp ProjectReferenceData repository, showing each rider’s year and race time in seconds. The D3.js v6 code loads the dataset with `d3.json`, maps years and times using `scaleTime` and `scaleLinear`, and renders circles with `selectAll` and `join`. Axes are generated via `axisLeft` and `axisBottom` on an SVG canvas that fills the window. Each dot carries `data-xvalue` and `data-yvalue` attributes for potential interactivity, though no tooltip or hover behavior is implemented.
