JavaScript remains the top programming language today with most code repositories written using JavaScript on GitHub. However, JavaScript is evolving beyond just a language for web application development into a language built for tomorrow. Everyday tasks like data wrangling, data analysis, and predictive analytics are possible today directly from a web browser. For example, many popular data analytics libraries, like Tensorflow.js, now support JavaScript SDKs.

Another popular library, Danfo.js, makes it possible to wrangle data using familiar pandas-like operations, shortening the learning curve and arming the typical data engineer or data scientist with another data tool in their toolbox. In this presentation, we’ll explore using the Node.js connector for Delta Sharing to build a data analytics app that summarizes a Twitter dataset.
