From releasing zero personal projects the previous year to having my first math explainer win the Pudding Cup!

Just a reminder to put the work you love out there!

The first side project I've seen to completion in a while: Benford's Law talks about how numbers in the real world, from finance to electoral and public data, aren't quite as random as they seem.

Back from @vizchitra.bsky.social and admittedly been slow to share the progress on the personal site - but we now have a navbar! (and a tiny sneak peak of the WIP hero section + illustrations)

Team RVL met at Bangalore to attend @vizchitra.bsky.social (India’s first dataviz conference) and to celebrate our studio’s 2-year birthday + IIB Awards win! We spent the weekend with our full-time team and almost every contractor who has worked with us over the years 🎂

Join his #VizChitra2025 workshop to explore spatial data with QGIS, from vectors to projections.

Been split between a couple projects this past week but a few things that did finally get done:

Just about done building VizChitra's team page. So if you wanna learn more about the folks volunteering to build India's first dataviz conference, head over to: vizchitra.com/meet-the-team

Our website has a new chart gallery! 📈📊📉

You can now browse through almost every chart from all our projects & filter them by chart function. Whether you’d like to draw inspiration, explore our projects, or just because you love charts. Stop by revisual.co/chart-gallery/ & look around! 👀

Had to rework things to play nice in Svelte 5, but finally we have a working footer!

For some reason I tried to force using $effect when a simple onMount worked fine. A bit of wrangling with a GSAP timeline and painful debugging sessions and here we are:

While progress on the personal site has grinded to a halt due a Svelte 5 reactivity bug that I can't quite figure out - I instead created these cards for the speaker line-up at VizChitra

Pretty pleased with the output considering it took a little under a day to design and build from scratch.

New: I recreated Tomas Wright’s 1742 astronomical treatise, Clavis Cælestis, and its accompanying sheets titled A Synopsis of the Universe. New posters are available in antique style and modern colors.

A bit of clean up and this what the footer for my personal site looks like.

The basic idea for the grid is to mimic an idle-style game running in the background as the user browses the site. As they spend more time on the page, more tiles are added to the grid (which is still to be completed).

I always wanted to make an effort to work more in public, posting snippets of my progress on side projects and things I find interesting along the way.

Hopefully having things out in the open might help others pick and steal their favourite bits or spark some new ideas.

Still slowly working away at #30DayChartChallenge in my own time. So here's day 15 - Complicated which involves one of the more complex GSAP plugins - morphSVG to manipulate SVG shapes.

Made with Svelte + GSAP. Still super janky but here's the code: github.com/schubert-da/...

🚨Deadline Alert: The call for proposals for #VizChitra2025 closes tonight at 11:59 PM IST

⌛️There's still time. Not a lot, but enough to pull that idea out of drafts and pitch: hasgeek.com/VizChitra/20...

🧵Here's why you don't need to overthink it.

#30DayChartChallenge Day 11 - Stripes.
Always wanted to figure out page transition animations so decided to build something similar for switching data in a bar chart. Made with Svelte + GSAP (and once again fake data!)

Also finally uploaded the source code: github.com/schubert-da/...

#30DayChartChallenge - Day 5: Ranking
Played around with my last viz to create a quick treemap loading animation with Svelte + GSAP.

Day 4 of #30DayChartChallenge - Big or Small has us comparing tiles of rather similar(ish) sizes in a treemap with a bit of interactivity using Svelte + GSAP (specifically the scrollTo plugin).

Data is from the definitely not made up geographical survey of Narnia.

Late start to #30DayChartChallenge but here's Day 1 - Fractions.

This year I wanted to focus a bit on learning interaction and animations so I decided to play around with some *made up data* to speed things up.

Created with Svelte + GSAP. Will share the code in a bit!
