I “did a devrel”: the story of Data Studio Community Visualizations Tooling

Audience: Beginner/Intermediate developers - intended more generally for developers familiar with JavaScript

Data Studio is Google’s serverless business intelligence and data visualization platform. As an easy and free-to-use reporting solution, Data Studio helps businesses and individuals to understand their data, derive key insights, effectively communicate measurements, and make better informed decisions.

WORKSHOP >>
Walkthrough of Data Studio Community Visualizations and Community Connectors

Yulan & Morgan will give a quick overview of the tools/technologies/concepts, and then be available to answer questions as participants work through the codelabs on their own.

Audience: Developers with Google accounts and JavaScript experience (participants should bring their own laptops).

Data Studio is Google’s serverless business intelligence and data visualization platform. Community connectors allow you to connect data from different APIs to Data Studio Dashboards, and community visualizations provide a way to write custom data visualizations for Data Studio. This workshop will be an opportunity to work through the self-paced codelabs for community visualizations and community connectors
