Especially #D3js people! There are always way more mentees looking for d3 support in this program than there are mentors who could help.
Continue playing with the #visualization of #russian personnel and equipment losses data. This time animated multi-line chart 📊 using #svelte #d3.

Thank you!
There is the same data visualized as a treemap. Here is a link to the notebook: observablehq.com/@romansverda...
Yes, y're right. Thanks a lot for pointing it out!
I forgot to exclude outliers from the legend color scale. There are two values, 2000 and 3160 of the personnel losses from the first weeks of the war, and the same for the APV category. Fixed it and added a spreadsheet view to the daily data.
russian artillery losses in Ukraine since Feb 24, 2022
russian personnel losses in Ukraine since Feb 24, 2022
A weekly update on daily russian personnel and equipment losses in Ukraine are already available on my "calendar" charts. Not sure about the name of the chart, but the calendar seems like a good option.

I often use #Svelte #Scroller in #dataviz projects, and only recently discovered that it supports custom queries as a prop, and can work with any kind of HTML tags in the foreground, not just sections as it is by default. It's time to say goodbye to ugly, non-semantic "Untitled Section"
Perfect topic for my first ever post on #bsky.
