Twenty thousand colored circles fall from the top of the viewport, then settle into horizontal bands based on each circle's speed and size. Two quantized scales map circle index to a target row, and a WebGL shader renders each point with a soft-edged stroke and rounded fill. The animation cycles continuously via a REGL frame loop, with position and color computed per frame in the vertex and fragment shaders using D3 scales and lodash for data shuffling.

Circles

A field of 1,000 small circles drifts randomly across an SVG canvas, wrapping around the edges when they exit the viewport. A text label in the corner displays a live frames-per-second counter. The animation uses `d3.timer` to update each circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes every frame, with positions stored in a data array generated from `d3.range(1000)` and `Math.random`. The code runs on D3 v3 and renders purely with SVG elements.

canvas circles

The visualization displays a grid of randomly colored circles that continuously appear and expand across the screen. It shows a generative animation where each frame introduces new circles at shuffled grid positions, growing from zero to full size before fading away. The code uses D3.js with SVG elements, leveraging transitions to animate circle radius and removal. Rendering depends on the d3-starterkit and d3-jetpack libraries for concise element creation and data binding. Colors are randomly generated RGB values applied to fill and stroke. The animation runs indefinitely via recursive setTimeout calls, creating an evolving, ever-changing mosaic of overlapping rings on a dark background.

swirling circles

Hundreds of small, semi-transparent circles continuously stream inward from the top and bottom edges, converging at the center before dispersing outward again in a looping, decorative motion. The animation is generated entirely with D3 v3, using chained `transition()` calls over 2-second durations to animate each circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes with a linear ease, then removing each element after its animation completes. Random colors are assigned via a custom `colorPicker` function, while circle starting positions and target offsets are determined by `Math.random()`. A `setInterval` spawns a new circle every 20 milliseconds, capped at 1,000 total per loop, which then repeats indefinitely.

regl-hurricane

Animated WebGL visualization of 10,000 line segments that continuously morph between different geometric patterns—a circle, then two distinct random point distributions. The code uses the regl framework with custom GLSL vertex and fragment shaders to interpolate between precomputed buffer states, cycling through three datasets in a loop. Line color shifts from blue to red based on each segment's position index, while d3 generates the underlying point data and easing functions control the smooth transitions.

regl-ladder-2

A cluster of 100,000 colored points animates across the screen, moving in a repeating wave pattern with a sinusoidal x-shift and vertical bobbing. The visualization demonstrates a performance optimization in regl, a WebGL library: passing all point attributes (position, color, speed) as a single packed array per frame outperforms passing separate attribute arrays, enabling 60 fps versus the slower alternative. Using regl’s shader system and GPU buffers, the code animates points via a cubic easing function, with colors alternating between blue and orange based on parity. The data is generated procedurally, with random x, y, and speed values for each point.

expanding-circles

Expanding circles continuously appear across the screen, growing from tiny dots to large rings with random fill and stroke colors. The animation generates a new batch of circles every second, each positioned on a grid spanning the full viewport. The code uses D3’s selection, data join, and chained transitions with `transition.attr('r')` to animate radius, while leveraging `d3.shuffle` to randomize drawing order. The SVG rendering relies on D3’s `append` and `translate` helpers from the d3-starterkit, with colors generated by a custom `randColor` function.

Circles Test

A grid of 1,000 semi-transparent circles animates and repositions itself every second. The circles vary in radius and color, and clicking one turns it black. Built with D3.js and the D3Kit Skeleton library, the visualization uses a linear scale for positioning and a category20 scale for colors. Data is generated randomly, with circle transitions handled by D3's `.transition()` method.

Circles with Animation

Eleven concentric circles pulse sequentially from a central point, expanding and collapsing in three alternating colors: red, green, and yellow. Each circle animates its radius from zero up to a multiple of its index times ten pixels, then shrinks back. The visualization uses D3 v5 selections with chained `transition().duration()` calls to animate SVG `circle` elements, setting radius, position, fill, and stroke attributes. The data array of indices 0 through 10 drives the size progression, while CSS opacity at 0.1 gives the overlapping circles a translucent, layered effect.
