Here's a Voronoi chart (a circular one 😅) visualizing what social workers do, ranging from working with individuals ("micro") to working at the community, organizational, or policy levels ("macro).

I can't wait to share what Jessica Bautista and I have been developing since last year!

Since we launched Viz Extensions, we added:

- Donut
- Better UI
- Polar Area
- Essential Pack
- Drill Down Filter
- Draggable Sankey
- Trex Generator Page
- About and What's New
- Background Color and Chart Size

In the next posts, I'll focus on individual chart improvement, and there's a lot!

One year ago, we launched our first newsletter about
Tableau Viz Extensions!

Last week, we dropped our 14th extension on Tableau Exchange: Draggable Sankey! 🎉

If you haven’t been keeping up, I'll share all the updates and improvements over the next two weeks!

It's always hard to know if people enjoy our newsletter or not.

Yes, there are metrics like open rate, click rate, and unsubscribe data...

But nothing compares to this kind of direct answer 😍

Thank you!

Good news: we will launch a brand-new product when
Tableau 2025.1 launches!

Even better news: it will be free! 🎉

We just updated AdvViz gallery!

Of the 10 Iron Viz Qualifiers, four people used AdvViz to build (at least) one chart.

Also, almost all qualifiers created complex charts for their entry.

I think this quite clearly demonstrates the need for allowing Viz Extensions on @tableaupublic.bsky.social

It took me an entire day to write our 2024 review.

It's full of charts, but it is a bit late now, so I'll hit "send" tomorrow!

Was it worth it to build Viz Extensions?
Can you sustain a company just being a couple?

I'll share everything tomorrow in our newsletter (link in bio)

I drew these for the #datafam holiday card exchange, but figured I'd share them for others to use too! Put them on your cards, gift tags, or anywhere that needs a little more #dataviz 📊

(1/2) New blog post! We're digging into how to use dynamic zones to build charts that the user can reveal one stage at a time, like the one from my 2025 #ironviz entry. (Link in reply). Thanks to @ladataviz.com for the network chart generator!

I just discovered that you can connect your domain and change your handle.

@ladataviz.com, as simple as that 🎉

Yesterday, I figured you could share a YouTube video that will play directly in the post.

Nice features, I like it here!

D3 ❤️ Tableau

Did you know you can use D3 to render charts directly in Tableau without leaving the tool and with simple drag and drop?

That's Viz Extension, and it removes all the visual boundaries Tableau used to have.

We explain everything in this new YouTube video 👇

Add apply buttons, change the type to a dropdown list, and keep only the relevant values....

For all your filters...

With a single click!

It's free for the first week, so give it a try!

After university, I never thought I’d code again.
For years, it was just me and Tableau.

Getting back into it changed everything and opened up so many opportunities.

Today, we're thriving and making an impact on how you use Tableau thanks to code 💻

Excited for what’s next!
