D3.js is great for custom data viz. You can get started by including the library in a script tag and not have to mess around with a bundler like Webpack until you are ready and just use plane CSS. D3.js doesn't work well with JS frameworks like React - it was jQuery like DOM manipulation functions. I find the best approach is to let D3 manage its chart and leave React for the UI. Or you can use a more React friendly library like React Viz from Uber. While D3 is great for custom data viz it's time consuming for standard charts. There are a lot of charting libraries out there like Chart.js. There is also Plot which is built on D3.js.
