Answer 1

I think the closest thing are libraries like:

• ReclineJS
• Miso Project Dataset

Recline in particular has a Dataset object with a structure somewhat similar to Pandas data frames. It then allows you to connect your data with "Views" such as a data grid, graphing, maps etc. Views are usually thin wrappers around existing best of breed visualization libraries such as D3, Flot, SlickGrid etc.

Here's an example for Recline:

// Load some data
var dataset = recline.Model.Dataset({
  records: [
    { value: 1, date: '2012-08-07' },
    { value: 5, b: '2013-09-07' }
  ]
  // Load CSV data instead
  // (And Recline has support for many more data source types)
  // url: 'my-local-csv-file.csv',
  // backend: 'csv'
});

// get an element from your HTML for the viewer
var $el = $('#data-viewer');

var allInOneDataViewer = new recline.View.MultiView({
  model: dataset,
  el: $el
});
// Your new Data Viewer will be live!
