High-level claim: embed ready-made visualizations into React with a fraction of the work by letting Plot (Observable Plot) generate an SVG and letting React useRef + useEffect hand it the DOM node, then remove it on cleanup. Live demo builds a letter-frequency bar chart with a dropdown to sort alphabetically or by ascending/descending frequency, shows Plot’s mark/scale API, and explains Observable embeds and copy‑paste React snippets for reuse.
