I‘ll be around on the evenings of May 5, 6 and 7. 😇

Will you also have a meetup in May?

Dead HTML & Robot Coworkers | Guild Apr 21st 5:00PM: Remember us? Neither did we. Svelte Society Stockholm is crawling out of hibernation with two talks: one about Astro + Svelte, and another about building Svelte applications using LLM...

Stockholm! The Svelte Society meetup is making a comeback!

Once again we're hosted by Schibsted!

A reminder that if you’re looking for dataviz content on Bluesky, there’s a lot here 👇📊

DataViz on a Deadline Doesn't Have to be Deadly I often describe myself as a "pre-crastinator". I worry about things and get things done ahead of time whenever I can.

Had the pleasure to talk about data viz on a deadline with @billshander.bsky.social!

And for the list votes? Well, we do not rely any more on constituency data level here. We now show the live data at the level of municipalities.

Here a screenshot, when first pieces of data came in.

Landtagswahl Baden-Württemberg 2026: Alle Ergebnisse aus den Gemeinden und Wahlkreisen Wie sieht der neue Landtag in Baden-Württemberg aus? Wer wird regieren? Die Daten und Visualisierungen im Überblick.

Our implementation can be found here: www.spiegel.de/politik/deut...

You might have noted that we visualize constituencies and their winners as cartogram.
We do this with a similar technique that @driven-by-data.net has already used last year.
The method is based on centroids, Delaunay tessellation and a force directed graph layout.

Tonight we’ve covered the election in the state of Baden-Württemberg.

Yes, thank you!

Arrived at Dagstuhl castle for an intense week on data visualization for biology! 📊🧬

Really looking forward to this week among so many fascinating scientists!

If the outer circle shows 2000 km, the circle is possibly wrong.

Who listened to Trump‘s State of the Union?

And yes, we also provide you with the knitting patterns for all Olympic countries! 🧶🧶🧶

The Norwegian-style medal count scarf for Norway. (Click on the image to see true size.)

We visualize the Olympic medal count as Norwegian-style scarf. :) 📊
Check out how Germany looks like and generate your own scarf – including download of the knitting pattern.

Heel mooie datavisualisatie door @spiegel.de van de Olympische Spelen in Noorse stijl: alle behaalde medailles in een sjaal (onderaan artikel kan je per land bekijken)

Who says you can't offer the medal table as a knitting pattern for people to knit themselves?

ah, btw:

With the piece of interactivity I described.

Yes, it is! And also highly reusable!

Thank you! 🙏

And my original post about this article: bsky.app/profile/higs...

(S+) Olympia 2026: Der deutsche Medaillenspiegel... als Fan-Schal So flauschig haben Sie den Medaillenspiegel noch nie gesehen. Wir zeigen alle Medaillenerfolge der einzelnen Länder: als Schal zum Nachstricken und In-Erinnerungen-Schwelgen.

And here is the link to our Olympic medal count article (gift link for the first 10 clicks): www.spiegel.de/sport/olympi...

<Canvas> itself is another Svelte component that makes it possible to describe canvas content in a descriptive way. That's what we call renderless components. We have already used this principle in this open-sourced story code here: github.com/spiegelgraph...

Within InteractiveCanvas.svelte we build up two canvases where the first is the real visible canvas, the knitting pattern. And the second is the identification canvas. Invisible to the users, but crucial for the event handlers.
