Overview of this book

Most data analysts use Python and pandas for data processing for the convenience and performance these libraries provide. However, JavaScript developers have always wanted to use machine learning in the browser as well. This book focuses on how Danfo.js brings data processing, analysis, and ML tools to JavaScript developers and how to make the most of this library to build data-driven applications. Starting with an overview of modern JavaScript, you’ll cover data analysis and transformation with Danfo.js and Dnotebook. The book then shows you how to load different datasets, combine and analyze them by performing operations such as handling missing values and string manipulations. You’ll also get to grips with data plotting, visualization, aggregation, and group operations by combining Danfo.js with Plotly. As you advance, you’ll create a no-code data analysis and handling system and create-react-app, react-table, react-chart, Draggable.js, and tailwindcss, and understand how to use TensorFlow.js and Danfo.js to build a recommendation system. Finally, you’ll build a Twitter analytics dashboard powered by Danfo.js, Next.js, node-nlp, and Twit.js. By the end of this app development book, you’ll be able to build and embed data analytics, visualization, and ML capabilities into any JavaScript app in server-side Node.js or the browser.

Chapter 4: Data Analysis, Wrangling, and Transformation

Data analysis, wrangling, and transformation are important aspects of any data-driven project, and the majority of your time as a data analyst/scientist will be spent doing one form of data processing or the other. While JavaScript is a flexible language with good features for manipulating data structures, it is quite tedious to write utility functions to perform data wrangling operations all the time. As such, we have built powerful data wrangling and transformation features into Danfo.js, and this can greatly reduce the time that's spent on this stage.

In this chapter, we will show you how to practically use Danfo.js on real-world datasets. You'll learn how to load different types of datasets and analyze them by performing operations such as handling missing values, calculating descriptive statistics, performing mathematical operations, combining datasets, and performing string manipulations.
