Glad to see some people are getting a kick out of this. I built it a few years back while learning webgl, css3, node.js, redis, and modern (at the time) js tooling. Source over at https://github.com/arscan/encom-boardroom

I didn't build this with any real practical application in mind at the time. But some people have reused components in their own projects over the years, particularly the globe (https://github.com/arscan/encom-globe).

Not going to hesitate to toot your horn here, man. This is extremely well done! It's all great!

That globe as an interface itself is worth congratulations and should be an envy.

I'll have to look more into your work.

Thanks for pointing to this one. I haven't seen the movie but there's some good representations for dense volumes of data there. I'd like to build some network health representation around this.

Yeah I considered that one as well. I love all his work.

Putting the quality of your work aside(which is really amazing), I applaud the self discipline required to develop such a big project on free time alone. Hope to get there one day.

I liked the mobile orienteering detection. Looks great on Firefox/Android.

Thanks. I use it on a couple of my projects [1]. Happy to take PRs if anyone has ideas for improvement.

Very cool. I've been thinking of a way to capture this aesthetic on the web. I love what you've done, but I don't know if it works in a browser as well as I envisioned. Great code, I will reference the globe in future projects. Thanks

All awesome stuff! I'm currently working in the travel industry and immediately after seeing this I'm planning on using the globe for a flights dashboard. ;)

Great! If you end up using it let me know.

Do you have an estimate how long it took to build all that?

This was beautifully done! Impressive work! :)
