Create Your Data Story with Tableau Public Online
According to Tableau: "Tableau Public is a free platform to explore, create, and publicly share data visualizations online".
Tableau Public's web-authoring feature is free and requires no set-up, installation, or coding experience. Though limited compared to Tableau Desktop Professional Edition, it is a neat way to use Tableau's powerful data visualisation capabilities to build and publish dashboards and data stories entirely online.
Note that you cannot save your work unless you hit 'publish'. Therefore, Tableau Public's web authoring is not the right choice for projects with confidential data or draft projects that are not yet ready to be shared with the world.
To create my data story, I used a World Bank dataset on private participation in infrastructure developments, narrowed down to South Asia and India from 2014 to 2023. You can check it out here:

If you haven’t explored Tableau Public yet, I highly recommend doing so. Tableau has a wealth of learning resources on YouTube, making it easy for anyone to get started.
