Seems like an advertisement for a book to get access to the content. The book is authored by the same person who wrote the article and the poster is new. I flagged it

I am sharing a visualisation - and the book which shows you how to make one is advertised on the same page. Is Show HN: not for showing something you made yourself?

It is, but the website itself contains no explanation of what it is. Yes your submission has a short, descriptive title, which is good, but the site is still very confusing to land on as a first-time visitor. Especially with the table of contents that goes nowhere.

Couple that with the fact that the website is mostly made up of ad banners for 3 separate products, it makes quite an odd Show HN submission (unless the Show HN is actually "Show HN: I wrote a book called Data is Beautiful", in which case I'd suggest updating the title.

Thanks for the feedback, paired with my other reply below, I'll be working on the presentation soon. I'm not a fan of the Bootstrap "jumbotron" for the banners myself either so I'll look for something else.
