What is sage2?

Sage2 is Scalable Amplified Group Environment. Sage2 is written in Javascript and runs within synchronised chrome web browsers. We are currently implementing sage2 support for The Data Arena.

Introduction?

This tutorial is a work in process, it covers installation, getting set up and creating simple d3 apps in sage2. Editing the default boilerplate to load some basic d3 examples of a bar chart and a simple implementation of parallel coordinates. There is a lot more that could be implemented such as integrating sage2 widgets, adding interaction and loading a CSV or JSON file to create reusable charts.
