The stories

A story is a sequence, not a chart.

The stories your data is waiting to tell.

Each story below is a complete data story — a hero, a villain, the few scenes that carry it, the branches it forks down, and the decision it exists to produce. A deck of scenes assembles into these tracks; your data decides which scenes are true and which branch the story takes. Some play live on demo data; all are real templates.
