TimeLine maintainer here. Their demo for live-streamed data [0] in a line plot is surprisingly bad given how slick the rest of it seems. For comparison, this [1] is a comparatively smooth demo of the same goal, but running entirely on the main thread and using the classic "2d" canvas rendering mode.

The entire library seems to be AI generated [1] [2]. Not sure how much of it was actually written by a human and how much of it was AI.

  Given that the author's post and comments all sound like they were run through an LLM, I'm not at all surprised.

  That was obvious before even looking at the repo because the OP used "the core insight" in the intro. Other telltale signs of these type of AI projects: - new account - spamming the project to HN, reddit etc the moment the demo half works - single contributor repo - Huge commits minutes apart - repo is less than a week old (sometimes literally hours) - half the commits start with "Enhance" - flashly demo that hides issues immediately obvious to experts in the field - author has slop AI project(s) OP uses more than one branch so he's more sophisticated than most.
