    Currently learning Python using Pandas and Numpy, SQL, and Tableau for visualisations.

    Where's the best place to collect my workings so that a potential employer  could view it? 

    I'm thinking maybe Kaggle allows me to do this? 
    Can I store Tableau visualisation on their website?
    Or should I store my code on GitHub?

    I'm looking to have a few interesting examples up there.

    Thanks!

    Also is anyone using D3.js
    Do you have to learn JavaScript beforehand?

    Personally I'd go with github.

    Hi there

    Thanks for the response 

    What kind of code could I show on Github for a university application?

    Something that shows I'm fairly comfortable for a beginner in Python?

    So far I've done some work on Jupyter notebooks using Google BigQuery Datasets

    I would suggest storing all the code base on github including the interactive python scripts. As well as that then maybe and end to end overview/blog of what you did and publish it on medium.
