  title: Looker Studio Community Visualization API
  description: >-
    Build and deploy custom visualizations for Looker Studio using any
    JavaScript visualization library. The dscc (Data Studio Community Component)
    helper library simplifies development by providing functions for data
    subscriptions, component dimensions, and user interactions. Visualizations
    are event-driven, receiving data and style information as users interact
    with the report. This specification documents the hosting and deployment
    contract for community visualizations.
