How is D3.js (Data-Driven Documents visualization library) correctly pronounced?
D3.js is pronounced 'DEE-three-jay-es' — 'D' plus 'three' (short for Data-Driven Documents, which has three D's) plus J-S. Equal stress on DEE and THREE. Don't say 'DEE-cubed' — that's a common joke, not the standard reading. In a technical interview: "D3.js gave us full control over every SVG element, so our custom force-directed graph looked exactly like the design spec."

How is Recharts (React charting library built on D3) correctly pronounced?
Recharts is pronounced 'REE-charts' — 're-' (React) plus 'charts'. Stress on REE. Don't say 'rih-CHARTS' with back stress. In a technical interview: "Recharts' composable components let us build a custom dashboard chart in far less code than raw D3."

How is Chart.js (simple canvas-based charting library) correctly pronounced?
Chart.js is pronounced 'CHART-jay-es' — 'chart' plus 'dot J-S' spelled out. Stress on CHART. Don't say 'CHART-jes' blending the letters. In a technical interview: "Chart.js rendered our dashboard on canvas, which handled thousands of data points more smoothly than SVG did."

How is Nivo (rich data visualization library for React) correctly pronounced?
Nivo is pronounced 'NEE-voh' — long E, stress on NEE. Don't say 'NY-voh' with a long I. In a technical interview: "Nivo's server-side rendering support meant our charts appeared correctly even before any client-side JavaScript ran."
