Products that do what A zoomable timeline of 4M Wikipedia events does

I'm building a journal app in Kotlin Multiplatform and for this purpose I have created a zoomable timeline interface. This is a side-project where I reuse the timeline interface to display 4 million events imported from Wikipedia / Wikidata, scored using PageRank. There is more information on the about page. If you're interested in the stack: I use Kotlin Multiplatform extensively, with Compose Multiplatform for the UI, communicates with the backend using Kotlinx-RPC and behind the hood a simple Postgres database on a Hetzner machine.

    Small experiment of visualization of wikipedia articles as a graph using d3.js.<p>Articles with more traffic are bigger. I computed the semantic similarity using LSI with python (gensim) You have to scroll down/right a bit!<p>http://similarityapi.appspot.com/graph/?title=blade%20runner<p>There is also a JSON api: http://similarityapi.appspot.com/api/v1/?limit=100&title=blade%20runner<p>All feedback is appreciated:<p>@lucamartinetti [email protected]

    When I read papers, I have to jump between multiple tabs to find the dataset, code, videos, peer reviews, and so on. I tried to fix this with this project. It started as a project just for papers on arXiv, but after its initial success on Twitter (got like 1.9k views: the most I have gotten for a post), I have now expanded it to include other openly available papers from PubMed Central, bioRxiv, medRxiv, and eLife. These papers have been linked with their genes, proteins, diseases, drugs, clinical trials, 3D protein structures, code, and cited and similar papers. This project now has four…

    Hi! This is a visualization I've always wanted but never quite found. It's a navigable map of the Wikipedia link graph structure, with search and shortest-path finding. Offline, I parsed the May 2026 English Wikipedia full-text dump into a directed graph, used cuGraph on a GPU to run PageRank, Leiden clustering, and ForceAtlas2 for the layout. I did some post processing to get rid of lingering overlapping nodes and rendered a tiled map of raster base images (using Skia) and JSON metadata. Tiles are bundled into PMTiles. The frontend is Deck.gl. Everything is hosted on Cloudflare. Search and…

    The graph is free to explore and requires no registration. SynapTale builds a model of a story as a temporal graph made up of nodes (entities) and edges (their actions and relationships). The graph is not a visualization of the wiki. The wiki, timelines, relationship histories, and analytics are projections of the graph. The current demo contains 232 entities, 1,852 edges, and a snapshot of the story’s state at every chapter. By chapter 100, it still remembers a promise made in chapter 8 and turns the story into a set of source-verifiable facts. The most interesting things can be found in…
