this would be lovely as html
- ColinWright 4y agoI've asked many, many times to try to get people to help me learn enough to be able to do this in HTML. They've all expressed enthusiasm, then gradually faded away and been unable to do it. There are complexities that most people find sufficiently daunting that they decide it's too much trouble. "We do these things not because they are easy, but because we thought they would be easy". That's why I've settled (so far)on a clickable SVG. Pareto's Principle: 80% of the benefit from 20% of the work.
- 867-5309 4y agopresumably something like python is being used to scrape tweets, then spitting out svg tags? shouldn't be much work to change those to html tags with a linked stylesheet or js library for diagrams. I see help offered elsewhere but count me as a +1, seems like a really useful tool
- ColinWright 4y agoYou don't have contact details in your profile, but I have in mine. Shoot me an email and I'll explain more about the challenges. If you can help I'd be really interested in talking with you.

- db48x 4y agoThere is a lot to be said for just running dot and living with the imperfections.
- ColinWright 4y agoWhich is exactly what I do.
- jimhi 4y agoIf you have the energy for one more go - I’ll help out with the HTML. I’ll try the email in your profile.
- ColinWright 4y agoSure ... my time is severely limited at the moment as an event I'm running is fast approaching, but I'd be happy to talk about the context and the problems, and see if we can do something. Edit: BTW ... plausibly the problem is working with me!
