This paper describes the design and development of a website to introduce the problem of gender diversity in tech through narrative data visualizations. It combines three publicly available datasets describing the demographics of technologists in high school, university, and industry, presenting them together to provide a full picture of how badly underrepresented women are in tech fields. Viewers can interact with detailed visualizations of each dataset to explore their own questions, without the analytical expertise necessary to analyze the raw data. The data visualizations are supplemented with narrative explanations of the relevant academic literature, so that even viewers without background knowledge can interpret the data in the correct context.
