Brush Handles
license: gpl-3.0
redirect: https://observablehq.com/@d3/brush-handles

This example demonstrates how to add visible and draggable handles to d3-brush, rather than that relying on the invisible boundary of the brush extent. The handle sizes here are exaggerated for demonstration purposes!
