Love to know what kind of tools/techniques/processes were used to generate such beautiful graph/animations....

I've dug through their minified files and from what I can tell other than dependencies they use i.e. Backbone, underscore, jQuery, bootstrap, D3, etc I believe a lot of it is custom coded. It's truly incredible.

Author here – Part 2 uses:

- React for DOM rendering

- D3 for visualization geometry

- RxJS for handling state (i.e. turning scroll position into animated properties)

- PIXI for WebGL bits (i.e. all the little circles moving around)

Ah shoulda mentioned I looked at part 1's minified code and assumed the same for part 2. Thanks for clarifying :)
