Chrome not running D3.js

I know this is some sort of security issue with chrome not running files it doesnt trust, but would anyone know is there anyway to fix this problem?

Other than running my code on a server.

Thanks.

Install http-server globally:

https://www.npmjs.com/package/http-server

This is a really fast way to develop locally. Disabling the file access with the flag will lead you to other bad practices and unexpected situations.

If using windows, you can create a shortcut where the "Target" includes the commands (instead of having to run Chrome from the command line:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --allow-file-access-from-files

I presume that you're running with a local file. When starting Chrome you can use the --allow-file-access-from-files flag to make it load local JSON (for example) or --disable-web-security to disable the security mechanisms altogether.

Note that depending on your version of Chrome these flags may or may not work.
