If I have an AI running locally (like LLamda 3.1 running on ollama) on my machine, can I connect to that API instead of using openAI?

Love the new Page loaders feature! This made me wonder.... 1. Is there a way to customize the entire html layout (e.g: removing all the

modulepreload

, `script`s, and other Framework specific things). Would love to have the customizability of Astro while being able to run Python data and page loaders 2. Would it be possible to also generate the

dynamicPaths

from a script? With something like this, almost no JS would be required for data folks to jump into Framework.

Hey yall!! New here. Does anyone know how to switch and observable to dark mode?

Is there a way to control the text and link-format in the table of contents ? I have issues with a server which doesnt support the / convention. Is there any hack or workaround to make it keep index.html

Hello, is there a list of dashboard creation services offered by Observable or even a list of contractors or consultants that we could work with to build out our analytics platform?

Hey all!! New here. Just trying to make the theme switcher, sitting with it like several days. Maybe there is a function under the hood to change it. B.c. changing it with css do not apply on the theme.

Hey there! I'm working on a small dashboard and trying to keep things lightweight in terms of data loading. Currently loading CSVs from Framework and works like a charm since the website doesn't need to load any parquet or DuckDB WASM packages. I've been trying to compress them but that doesn't seem to play well with

FileAttachment("data.csv").csv({typed: true});

. Any tips here? I think modern browser should support getting the data compressed (

gzip

/

zstd

) and would speed things up.

Hi all! Is there anyone with experience using Plot in their own applications? I would love to talk to you!

Do I recall @Fabian Iwand mentioning that there is a public backup of the old help channel somewhere?

Hi #all, This is BT from India. In Compromise API, i am using

I need to get the result like {italian : "adjective", marbel :"noun",floor :"noun"}. But I got "Italian marble floor " as noun. Can anyone help...

I haven’t had a chance to do anything with our observable framework setup in a while, but came back to it today — and it’s still a pleasure. just wanted to shout that out somewhere. thank you! 👏

Hello everyone, I am a React/Next.js developer currently starting my journey with D3.js. I’m looking for beginner-friendly resources to help me understand the fundamentals. My goal is to build a solid foundation so I can experiment and create impactful visualizations like the inspiring examples I’ve seen. If you have any recommendations or guidance to share, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you in advance!

Hello everyone, does anyone have Google maps POI detailed list?

Quick question on pricing: are editors and viewers "named" or "floating"? I am really curious about the tool but we are pretty informal analytics needs and I expect editors and viewers to be pretty inconsistent month-to-month. I'd hate to spend on more viewers / editors than actually used each month.

Has anyone used plotly with observable framework? I’m looking for examples of 3d scatter plots

Has anyone tried running python inside observable framework using something like pyodide?

Say I have some code I want to display, but the code is saved in a variable, I can do the following:

```ts
const code = await FileAttachment('hello.py').text()

pre ${code} /pre``` But is there any way to do it where I get syntax highlighting?

Random question for the group. I am trying to align my career in data engineering and BI development with my interest in developing data visualizations and dashboards with Observable. For those of you who are fortunate enough to build with code instead of traditional BI tools, would you be willing to share details about your job? Any information about your company, role, and career path would be very helpful. And any stories of successfully switching your company from using traditional BI tools to using Observable would be particularly interesting. For context, the company I work for has a small pool of full-stack developers that build in JavaScript frameworks like React (which I'm not experienced in) while they have a large group of "analytics engineers" that build with tools like Power BI. I see tools like Observable as a great sweet spot between these two, but it hasn't made traction in my company (yet).

Hello everyone. I'm trying to chart India and Indian states using D3 geo. For some reason—which I'm unable to figure out—the path elements that are generated from the mercator projection function are 1. Overlapping, and only the last path is visible. 2. Extending beyond the bounds of svg, when in requirement, they should only take as much space as bounded by the path `d`'s stroke. Following is an observable for reproduction: https://observablehq.com/@apah/indian-states. In this example I've added a fill opacity to show that the paths are rendered, but incorrectly. When I try a different (less accurate) data like this one: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/RajuBhosale/a136cf7b0d437067bdb1/raw/33c9d96c70931f56883b9f50a3dd3f63f605938a/map.geojson, the problem doesn't happen. So I believe, there might be something wrong with the data itself? I can't figure out how to figure that out, especially because the geojson data is from a government source, so it's the most accurate data I have, and all the other GIS softwares like mapshaper.org and qgis are rendering it correctly. Help would be really appreciated, have been stuck on this for a while. The only relevant content around this problem that I've found on the internet: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20196948/geopath-overlap-after-scale-d3-js

The documentation here implies that you use API keys to embed private notebooks: https://observablehq.com/documentation/embeds/api-keys But when I do this, the only API keys that I can create have project scope. The "notebook key" method on the above documentation works, but the "API key" method for embedding a private notebook does not. Happy to share an example, this is easily reproducible.

Hi. I'm having a little trouble wrapping my brain around bin and group. I have 3 years of data broken down into 15 minute increments. It's a lot of data points. I want to group the data by day and add up the total of a column for each day. I cannot figure it out. Does anyone have any tips? I have a notebook if anyone is willing to look through it with me.

Hi all, I would like to customize my chart to be able to add a trend / CAGR such as shown below (in red). Based on the documentation, I felt this feature is not supported but wanted to confirm with this group. Thanks

Hi everyone! Are there any examples clipping marks to geojson objects? > If the clip option is frame (or equivalently true), the mark is clipped to the frame’s dimensions. If the clip option is null (or equivalently false), the mark is not clipped. If the clip option is sphere, the mark will be clipped to the projected sphere (e.g., the front hemisphere when using the orthographic projection); a geographic projection is required in this case. Lastly if the clip option is a GeoJSON object ^0.6.17, the mark will be clipped to the projected geometry. I am trying to clip a hexbin & hexgrid to a country shape, how do I do this?

Wow, d3.tween is really cool. Here is a notebook with curved links that work with dragging and staggered animations: https://observablehq.com/d/c600682a67923062
