This example tracks a series of tweets and links that compare Esri’s products and events to those of Mapbox and the wider FOSS4G community. It presents a timeline of exhibits, from drone no-fly zones and hexbin maps to GeoDev HackerLabs and GPS track mapping, each with corresponding URLs. The data is sourced from a gist by TheMapSmith, with entries linked via Twitter statuses and blog posts. The visualization does not use external libraries, relying on plain HTML and Markdown to structure the chronological log.

A timeline of Twitter bookmarks and links captured from June 8, 2015, shows a stream of cartography and open-source mapping discussions. The visualization renders each tweet as a node on a vertical list, with the handle and text visible, while the embedded URLs are extracted and displayed as separate, linked cards. The code uses d3.forceSimulation to position the nodes and d3.linkHorizontal to draw connecting edges. Data comes from a static gist of markdown-formatted tweet URLs, with the layout reflecting the chronological order of the original posts.

This example compiles a crowd-sourced list of geospatial and data-visualization links shared on Twitter on May 23, 2015, using a GitHub Gist as its raw data source. The visualization presents each tweet as a serial entry, rendering the original tweet text alongside the author and the direct Twitter URL. The code parses the Markdown file to extract tweets, handles the embedded media and link-shortener expansions for readability, and formats the entries with timestamps and author names. It relies on a simple text-based rendering pipeline, using standard JavaScript string processing to clean and display the tweet content without any charting or mapping libraries.
