To get to the next level and scale of bigger programs, you need to leverage the tons of work information visualization researchers have done.

I always point people to Prof. Tamara Munzner's work[1][2] that allows you to skip over all the dead ends that people have tried over the decades and gives you a "thinking framework" on how to design visualizations.

[2] really interesting. A shame the preview only covers the table of contents. There’s a search feature, but you are not allowed to see the search results :-/

Thank you for sharing this. I've seen mentions of this book before, but haven't read it. Adding her works to my watch/read list now!
