This example scrapes the front page of Hacker News and prints a plain-text list of story titles and their links to the console. It uses the `request` library to fetch the HTML and `cheerio` to parse the DOM, selecting elements with the `.title a` selector. The data is collected into an array of objects with `text` and `href` properties, then logged via `console.log`. No visualization is rendered; the output is purely textual.

streaming-crawler.js that reads articles from first X pages

This example streams the first five pages of Hacker News articles and extracts each story’s title and link. It uses the `request` library to fetch each page, then pipes the HTML through `html-tokenize` and `html-select` to parse elements matching the `.title a` selector. As text and attribute data flow through, the code logs each article’s href and title to the console, skipping links marked with `rel="nofollow"`. The process chains pages sequentially, incrementing the page number until reaching the stop condition, and finally reports the total number of pages crawled.

Fork of HTML Starter

This example displays the text “Hello HTML” in large, centered type on a plain white page. It fetches a CSV file containing CSS named colors from a GitHub gist using the Fetch API, then logs the raw text response to the browser console. The page demonstrates basic HTML structure with inline CSS styling and asynchronous JavaScript for data retrieval, though no visualization is rendered. The code uses the global `fetch` function and `response.text()` to handle the remote data.

fetch from my gist

This example demonstrates a minimal HTML page that fetches and logs a CSV file of CSS named colors from a GitHub gist. The page renders a large “Hello HTML!” message styled with CSS, while the fetchData.js script uses the Fetch API to retrieve the raw text data from the provided URL and output it to the console. It illustrates a basic pattern of combining JavaScript’s async/await with the browser’s native fetch for loading external data, without any visualization framework beyond plain HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

Gist f72a3553521c158f0eb0dccbe774455e

This example demonstrates a web scraper that extracts detailed trail information from a hiking website. It shows how structured data can be programmatically retrieved from HTML pages, specifically pulling out features, overview, and description sections. The code uses the Nokogiri library to parse the document and XPath queries to locate the relevant heading elements. After extracting each section, it cleans the text by removing newlines and excess whitespace. The scraper returns a hash containing the three descriptive fields, making the data readily accessible for further processing or visualization.

Fork of HTML Starter

This example fetches a CSV file from a GitHub gist and logs its contents to the browser console. The code uses the Fetch API and its `text()` method to retrieve the raw data, while the page itself displays a static "Hello HTML!" message styled with CSS. The visualization is minimal, focusing on demonstrating asynchronous data retrieval in a plain HTML document.

Gist 46230

This example demonstrates how to fetch a Wikipedia page and inspect its HTTP response using Ruby’s standard Net::HTTP library. It shows the response code, message, and raw HTML body for the Harry Houdini article, with an `Accept` header requesting XML. The code prints each part to the console, illustrating basic web request handling without any data visualization or rendering.

fetch data asynchrously

This example demonstrates how to retrieve data from a remote URL asynchronously using JavaScript. It fetches a CSV file containing CSS named colors from a GitHub gist via the `fetch` API, converts the response to text with `response.text()`, and logs the raw content to the browser console. The code defines a reusable `fetchText` function that wraps the asynchronous fetch and text extraction in a promise chain with `.then()`. The HTML file is minimal, relying entirely on the external `index.js` script for functionality, and no visualization or rendering occurs beyond the console output.

jhjhj

This example displays the text “Hello HTML” in large, centered type on a plain page. The code uses raw HTML and CSS for styling, with a JavaScript script that calls `fetch` on an empty URL string. No data is loaded or rendered, and there are no visualizations, charts, or interactive elements; it is a minimal demonstration of basic web technologies without any framework.
