Frame.io | Front-end Developer | NYC or (possibly) REMOTE.

Frame.io helps solve video collaboration and we are looking for front-end developers to help build out our web app. Come join if you care about crafting beautiful experiences on the web, and want to work with great tech like React and Styled-Components.

Details here: https://grnh.se/1d28396f2

The main difference is that it uses an imperative api and it accepts a render callback allowing you to customize it pretty much any way you want.

As someone who is colour blind, I don't see this being much of an issue. If the colours are strong and stark enough (which it looks like they are) the vast majority of people who are colour-blind won't have any issues.

Since I wrote this tutorial, I've substantially rewritten the d3/timeline portion of the website. It's a bit cleaner and more efficient now. https://github.com/bmcmahen/Subtitles/blob/master/client/scr...

Ah, apologies. I wrote this a while back and the repo has changed within the last month. I'll update the links. Thanks for catching this.
I'm happy to hear this. One of the primary problems with client-side development right now is the lack of commonjs style imports and exports -- something which people are trying to solve using component, etc. It'd be nice if Meteor had something baked in.

I think a fair number of us non-cs-ers end up in web development primarily because html/css is more accessible. I, myself, was more interested in design than coding, and I only learned the basics as a means to creating the designs I wanted. From there you might start learning some JavaScript, you might start learning some frameworks (like Backbone, or ember), and you might get fairly proficient with them... but I don't think the web attracts non cs people because it's "cool" or "hip".
